Friends scattered,Relatives spread;Brain shattered,Molten lead… Wait… Okay then,Start again: Friends found,Family hold;Mind around,Solid gold. Fully unprepared,Always ready;Slightly scared,Moving already. Over oceans,Mixed emotions;Stories ending,Heart rending… Wait… Stories growing,Heart glowing;Mistakes aplenty,Maybe twenty… Wait… Definitely more –forty .four;Regrets few,Can’t undo;Not rotten,Quickly forgotten;Complaints none,Still not done… Poetry plays,Seemingly exaggerated;Some days,Probably understated.

Tickets and flags, toys and games;Stickers and bags, artwork in frames. Things I collected, items for sport;Seldom rejected – The last resort. Cultivated in nooks, ‘stuff’ lingers, ‘stuff’ grows;Curated scrapbooks: Little fingers, little toes. Educational kits and playing cards;Random magical tricks and ankle guards. Pieces and bits, of all shapes and sizes;Used paper clips andContinue reading “To Know the Difference”
