Together

Together

Together again
Twenty four seven
Running a marathon
Not an unusual phenomenon

Many couples enjoy this life
And many do not
There will be strife
Like a blood clot

It can kill you
If you do not dissolve
The nasty brew
Before it can evolve

Evolve to your heart
Where it can hurt or kill
So be smart
And use your skill

Take medicine to thin your blood
Learn to shrug off the attacks
Or you will be stuck in the mud
So know the facts and relax

A good relationship
Is like blood thinner
Works like forgiveness
We are sinners

So enjoy every minute
Laugh a lot
Be compassionate
They are not an afterthought

Fun in the Snow


Snow

Snow is beautiful
It is so calm and reassuring
In the right places it's plentiful
And it can be alluring

Snow holds memories
From my youth
Adding to my life histories
And until I am long in the tooth

Snowman
Snow fights
Snow angels
Snow slushies

The games change
Along come acquaintances
Friends interchange
And so do the experiences

Ski
Sleigh rides
Snowboarding
Snowmobiling

All part of the journey
The journey of life
A grand tourney
Marching to the drum and fife

Cocoa Beach

Cocoa Beach
Coco Beach

The first thing pops in my mind
I Dream of Jeannie
A sit com comedy enshrined
About a beautiful genie

Now I live close
It is more about the beaches
And rocket launch shows
Plus the marinas

My sailboat is docked here
In Cape Canaveral Port
So close to the rocket roar
Sights and sounds to take to heart

It is where we go to the beach
Not far to roam
Easy to reach
So close to home

Great place to ride bicycles
We have a nice circuit
As long as we avoid vehicles
A tourist orbit

Chasing their cruise ships
Cars and buses rushing around
People heading on trips
They are hellbound

To go on vacation
But Cocoa Beach is my place
My fixation
A holiday to chase and embrace

I have many amenities
All in this one city
Including many memories
But most the beaches are pretty

Barometric Pressure

Barometric Pressure

As the pressure drops
Like a stone from a tower
My health flops
By each minute and hour

I lock up
Slowing down
Drinking my death cup
I flounder and drown

Unable to function
Unable to comprehend
Unable to function
Unable to live

A robotic zombie
Floating along
Unstable and wonky
This is my song

A song of lostness
A song of worthlessness
A song of smallness
A song of nervousness

How long will this go on
This morbid journey
Until my symptoms are gone
And I am back in lifes tourney

Functioning normal
Thinking and talking
Not feeling abnormal
Functioning and walking

Living a normal life
A life of normality
No continuous strife
Just a life of vitality

Once again
I am patient and await
The barometric train
To steam forward reducing its weight

Arriving at my station
Which it always does
Creating a new period of gestation
And my symptoms fizz

I walk and wake from my stupor
As the train passes
Slowly reducing my stooper
Not slow and thick as molasses

But normal and bright
Clear headed
My symptoms in flight
Completely broken and shredded

Back in the living
Where life is good
Another season of thanksgiving
Living as I should
