Friendship
Down memory lane
Bouquets of forget-me-knots
Sentimentally shared
Senryu

Close
Because I thought victory would be mine
I was over confident
I didn’t tow the line
Because I thought victory would be mine
I assumed all was fine
And I lost the event
Because I thought victory would be mine
I was over confident

Hat’s off to the Hatter
There once was a Mad Hatter
Who loved nonsensical chatter
He lived in the Land of Wonder
Which madness tore asunder
But to the Hatter it didn’t matter
Lymerick

This silly rhyme was written in honor of National Hat Day today
Life Lights
Lunch out with a friend
Breaks dreary day boredom
Sun shines through the clouds

A Wealth of Memories
In my treasure box
Is an abundance of wealth
Rare riches of my mind
Treasures of fond memories
And golden nuggets of life

Unique
Golden memories
Held within my treasure box
Unique only to me

Forward Thinking
I’m moving forward
Each day that I am alive
One step at a time

Mind’s Eye
Recent photographs
Take me back to childhood days
Where I climbed towers tall
As if it was yesterday
And I had no cares at all
