Why every November
We who are forward thinking
Must now turn back time

Tonight
Another change
Time falls back an hour
Tomorrow will seem different

Thoughts for the Future
A thought,
Nurtured,
Like a seed
Planted with care,
In good soil, will grow
Into something big,
That can benefit many.
Therefore, choose good soil,
If you want thoughts that will blossom and grow
Into good things for your future life.

Life’s Book
Never taking time.
Too busy to smell the roses.
Ignoring the clock,
We leaf thru our life’s book,
Reaching the end too soon. We weep
Tanka
Life Change
This season of life
Turning over a new leaf
Old habits falling
Haiku
Wondering…
Why is it just so hard
For some to tell the truth?
“Old habits die hard”
Senryu
Breakthrough
A feeling of hope
Arises from the gray mist
Sun shines through the trees
Haiku
Whose Hand?
My inner child’s asking
“Whose hand are you holding
As you walk today?”
“If it’s the Hand of Pleasure,
She will lead astray”
“If it’s the Hand of Worry
You’ll have a bad day”
“I’m holding the Hand of God”
I say, ” So I’ll always be okay”
Choka/Rhyme
Life’s Seasons
People come and go
Things change like Fall leaves
And we must detach
With a quiet acceptance
Or fly away with the wind
Tanka
All Ages
Like Prune or Plum
Yourh snd Aged have value
Both beneficial
Both can share something
That society truly needs
