be still

be still the light
that shines
where there was once
only darkness.

find

find joy instead of jaded and life will appear more magical

softly yellow

softly yellow
sweet touches
of stripes
by tigers bestowed.

do pigeons meditate

do pigeons in those silent moments
ponder as they plan to
wander.
do they evaluate in an
existential sense
where they are going
and where they went.

memorial day

memorial day

memorial day

On memorial day we honor those who have served
The army, air force, marines, the navy , the reserves
We honor those who fought so that we could be free
To enjoy our careers, our friends, our families
We honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice
So we would not pay the worst possible price
To be enslaved, our freedoms torn
Into a lifeless world our children would be born.
This is not about being in favor of war
We all hate the bloodshed, the pain, the gore
This is about people who did what had to be done
Here is hoping that one day,
Wars will be none.

and this includes our four legged friends,
of loyalty, love and valor
even after the end♥
