Life Is A Trip

Life is a trip

Life Is A Trip

Goodbye, Farewell, I am going on a voyage,

But Life is a trip from “here to there”;

I’ll return with lots of notes: a mental forage,

Resplendent, receptive and prepared:

For the journey through the vicissitudes of Time,

Step by step, hour by hour, day by day,

(While stopping on the way to write a rhyme!)

Traveling and marveling The Way.

Under The Rainbow

Under The Rainbow

Under The Rainbow

Somewhere, under the Rainbow,

Tempers fly…

Moods grow grim, and Spirits cry.

If, instead, we’d see the glow

Of all those colors in the sky

And shed our cares and worthless woes,

The Rainbows could respond to “Why?”

Our Pots of Gold are lost below.

Summer Age Esteem

Summer

Summer Age Esteem

Heat and Sweat are summer names

Pronounced apart, but spelled the same.

When it’s hot the sun just beams,

Showing it has Age Esteem!

It is much better to perspire

Than let your spirits all expire.

So sweat and glow

And heat your soul!

And never let your fire tire!

Summer Is Here!

Summer's Here

Summer’s Here!

Summer’s here!

Weather’s fair,

Time for cheer,

Abandon cares.

  Make it clear,

  Here and there,

  That you don’t fear

  Life’s wear and tear!

Shine Like A Star

Shine Like A Star

Shine Like A Star

 As Life hurtles by like a star

     It’s here, but its end is not far,

            So why not shine bright

                        While there still is some light,

   And sparkle and be singular!

              We all have our moments of gloom,

                         In what’s called our small “worry room”.

            If you open that door

                  Your problems will soar

                        And resolve and dissolve all that doom!

Life Is Like An Endless Voyage

Life is endless voyage

Life is like an endless voyage:

A one-way ticket to each age.

No boarding pass or reservations

Are needed traveling through Time’s “stations”.

If your conductor is first rate,

And your mind’s view is just great,

The panoramic years will seem

Enhanced by living Age Esteem.

Under The Weather

Under the Weather

Under The Weather

Feeling “under the weather” has a negative kind of ring,

But the weather you are under might be sunny IF you sing!

Moods are clouds which will abate,

Fog-like shrouds shall dissipate –

When you face a stormy day…

All your rainy moods will sway,

Bringing rainbows and their beams

Sky lit up by Age Esteem.

Always Try Esteem!

Always Try Esteem

Always Try Esteem!

Never is a rigid word,

It never makes much sense,

Because sometimes just might come along

And often clears that fence!

Seldom seems to bridge some gaps

‘Tween perhaps and it seems,

Forever is too long a lapse,

But always try Esteem!

Life Is A Salad

Salad

Life Is A Salad

Life is a salad,

Green at its best,

Mixed with a dressing,

Experienced with zest.

Each day is your garden

Grown with much care;

As you learn to pardon

The weeds of despair.

Another Year

November 30th, 2012 Comments off

The Holidays are almost here,

Oh where has gone another year?

Did I make the most of it?

Did I rise instead of sit?

Was I worthy of the days?

Speaking in the kindest ways?

Fulfilling all my greatest dreams?

Growing older with esteem!
