Life is filled with orchids
don't ever forget that
orchids are perfect flowers
they are always smiling
and welcoming you to a new day
don't ignore them
embrace them
water them
put them near the sun

April Fools
Snow may be a blanket that warms my heart
but on April Fools Day?
This must be some kind of joke
Sun is what we need
NOT
snow
and
I LOVE SNOW
but not in April unless I am skiing
in the sun
in Colorado
WRITER'S FOOTNOTE: IT SNOWED AROUND HALLOWEEN THIS YEAR AS WELL...HMMM...AND IN EARLY JANUARY, 2012, WE EXPERIENCED 62 DEGREES AND SUNSHINE

It's Time for Spring Now
Are you ready for spring?
I am
Are you ready for warmth?
I am
Are you ready for flip flops?
I am
Let's just enjoy the sun
and wait for summer.
Forget the cold once and for all
Forget the snow once and for all
I need to wear a light jacket
I am happy the sun is still up at 7
Let's push for 8
then 9
and keep it there
No more snow until never
I am ready to live in sun and warmth every day

Blanket of Snow
Today, we bury the past
under a blanket of snow
What better way to leave this earth
than to close your eyes in the sun
and three days later
walk in the snow with God.
Your hand will be held forever
by the woman you lived for and
who lived for you.
Your days on this earth are marked
forever in time
in the spirit of those you have left
in your wake
They will carry on your legacy
in the snow, the rain and the sun
and laugh all the way to the next
wave that will carry them safely to shore.

On My Way To Baltimore
Sun is shining
People abound
as I head southbound
to see Alana
who will share her journey
of her summit
to the top of Kilimanjaro
and the African safari
that began her trip
which is a sharp contrast
to the broken train I am on
No snow here

Orchids
The sun is shining
The snow is soft and plentiful.
I am skiing
among
sweeping slopes that are lined with
magenta orchids.
They
guide me to
a Japanese lake
in spring where I will sit
under a pergola
and listen to the nearby stream
roll over moss fed stones

Follow the Sun and Leave the Rain Behind
If rain were cold,
it would be snow;
if snow was frozen,
it would be ice.
I like the sun
no matter what!
