Greets my nose and makes the bile rise
While I upturn the can from which it came

When life is your muse
You are inspired every day
When life is an odyssey
You learn everyday
You pen down your fears
On a gloomy day
And paint a lovely picture
Spreading colors . . . more

You sit there and you watch it go.
When young , It seemed to move too slow.
A lot of it was spent on play.

And get angry at others for their loss or shame
Yet so very many are out there that suffer
In every country that you can name

Leaving traces of negative tape
Sitting in the water
My life caught in pictures
Silence put out for the world to see
Placed in scrapbooks . . . more

Fluttering her wings
Amidst the sweet scent
Giving flowers competition
You are stagnant
But I can fly
And spread my colors
in the sky
Just out of bud says . . . more

Over coals that glowed red hot.
We sat in dancing shadows
Swapping tales about the drive
That lay three . . . more

At play with pots and cups today;
A cook who puts her plates away—
Joy awhirl!
Little boy
At bat with eyes that strain to catch
The flight of white across the patch—
