My writing
Denver
Denver is the man
Growing like crazy
He is part of the clan
And he is not lazy
Moving about
Zoom and zag
Ready to loudly shout
And play a game of tag
He can be shy
Hard to get going
Then he is ready to fly
With no slowing
He can be hard headed
Wanting his way
Which can make you lightheaded
But he is almost four but halfway
He is caring and loving
Wanting a hug from you
Giving one without complaining
A hug is honest and true
I like Denver
We have fun
He will be an achiever
A strong one
Holiday
Christmas
Will not decay
With an accomplice
Always fresh
With a happy companion
Flesh to flesh
And much affection
Life is fun
Life is exciting
Life is a blast
Life is exhilarating
A special person
Makes all the difference
Affection and cooperation
Tolerance and reverence
Honor and cherish
Give all you can
Romance will not perish
With many parties over your lifespan
Birthdays
Halloween
Anniversaries
Weddings
Many occasions to share
Arm and arm
Under loving care
And mesmerizing charm
Sing with joy
For this grand opportunity
Only we can destroy
Our loving community
And I will guard and protect
This one in a lifetime chance
Allowing no disrespect
During this lifelong dance
She found me
She chose me
I have claimed her
And I will keep her
Forever and ever
To death do us part
And I will never
Lose my sweetheart
Who Is She
Happy
Gay
Enthusiastic
Optimistic
She is a lightening beam
Her own liturgy
I can only dream
So full.of energy
Why is she alone
No one has claimed her
She is not owned
By a mister or sir
Probably her choice
She is strong
With her own voice
She knows right from wrong
She wants a companion
Just like me
Who will not abandon
An attentive attendee
To life
To grief
To celebration
To sorrow
She wants comfort
So do I
She want to be unhurt
And not cry
She wants gaiety
She wants merriment
She wants playfulness
She wants levity
We all want this
We do much research
Along with a kiss
And we search and search
Giving up hope
This person will never be found
And I am no dope
To catch someone on the rebound
Please God give me a chance
To find love and contentment
Along with romance
And adornment”
Shift
Left to right
Forward and back
Dark to bright
Run to tack
There are many ways to go
And I must change
Do not go with the flow
I must turn the page
Leave Jackson
Do not be shocked
Viking or saxon
Not land locked
A new journey
Sailing away
Leaving absurdity
A new sunset everyday
My intent
My want
My plan
My desire
At sixty not too late
To transition
A new journey and fate
A grand ambition
But wait
Who is this girl
That I went on a date
Her hair has so much curl
I am smitten
By her beauty and enthusiasm
Maybe sailing is not written
She has to be an addendum
My plan b has crumpled
Moving to plan c
My arrogance humbled
I now can see
I want her in my life
And she makes me laugh
With no crazy strife
I want to be her better half
In this moment
In this time
In this minute
In this space
I will pursue her
Wanting to know if she is real
Not some imaginary blur
And my feelings are real
Sailing will be there
But I can not let this pass
I am chasing that wild hair
And this charming lass
There is so much opportunity
There is so much promise
There is so much compassion
There is so much expectation
Go all in
Do not miss the chance
I can only laugh and grin
A sailboat can not kiss or dance
I missed you
My good friend
We can share a pew
And transcend
Transcend my feelings
My feelings of obscurity
In all routine dealings
Reducing my security
Fall left to right
Shift backwards
The sun so bright
Unable to say words
Where do you hide
In the summertime
Where do you reside
Rushing back time after time
To disrupt my life
Bewitching me
Causing such strife
Not letting me flee
Fleeing the troubles
Fleeing the nuisance
Fleeing the intangibles
Fleeing the assurance
Assurances of stability
Assurances of normality
Assurances of survivability
Assurances of congeniality
I become tired
I become annoyed
I become angered
I become destroyed
Hard to accept
This reoccurring crap
Not well kept
In this sinister trap
Trap of denial
Trap of betrayal
Trap of carnal
Trap of abnormal
This is not just
Give me relief
Can you adjust
And reduce your grief
You must
No other choice
Or you will rust
And lose your voice
Stay steady
Bulk up
Reduce your anxiety
Accept your cup
