Quiver Shiver

Quiver shiver
Aspen leaves
Tremble twitch
and quake,
Catch a sliver
of the sun
a shimmer
of a lake.

Thoughts to keep~

Thoughts to Keep~

I give you this, A thought to keep-
Iam with you still, I do not sleep.

Iam a thousand winds that blow,
Iam the diamond glints on snow.

When you wake in mornings hush,
Iam the swift, uplifting rush
of Quiet birds in circled flight.
Iam the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone,
Iam with you still, In each new dawn.

Boats sail

Boats sail on Rivers and ships sail on seas
But clouds that sail across the sky are by far prittier than ease.
There are bridges over the rivers as pritty as you please.

Tama, The Wonder Cat by Len Bourret

Tama, the Wonder Cat

by Len Bourret(Copyright 2008)

When outside of the train stationmaster's office,
Tama, the Wonder Cat, can be seen at the
ticketgate, in the city of Kinokawa, Japan.
Tama, a nine-year-young super stationmaster,
a tortoise-shell-colored feline, the only female
in a Wakayama Electric Railway's fifth-highest
managerial position, wears a brightly-colored
company cap, works 9-to-5 six days a week,
and takes Sundays off, on the provincial 10-
station, 14.3 kilometer (8.9 mile) Kishigawa
line, a dedicated and diligent workier, she
wags her tail and says hello, while calmly
watching passengers who greet her, and
boosting the number of train travelers from a
handful of passengers to an incredible 2.1
million human adventurers.
If you ask Tama how her job is going, she'll 
meow or purr and say, "just fine."
Tama's curiousity and her 9 lives, helps the
humans save on gas, and they don't drive. 
Although flying and sailing are mighty grand,
Aircrafts don't usually fly down Main Street,
Spaceships don't soar in inner space,
Seacrafts don't sail well on land,
Buses do travel on the roadways,
They have a local or regional station base,
Unless one travels by express,
Cars do travel on the byways,
They are expensive to rent, own, and operate,
Cars gas guzzle and pollute the highways,
There are enviironmental issues to address,
Yet, clickety-clacking rails are quite a treat,
A train ride to soothe one's heart and soul,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, all aboard!
A way to travel that can't be beat,
At a saving-the-world's cost we can afford,
If global cooling gets front row, front seat,
Our actions and thoughts are of one accord.

Don't Go

I will always love the way you sound, the way you walk, the way you meow.
You have been here with me through the days and nights and your eyes so cute they make me hold you tight. Didn't even think about the pain this will cause. I didn't think about it, I didn't cry myself to sleep over it, I didn't even know about it. Don't go don't leave me behind you were always there on the side of the bed when I cried, thinking of the consequences of having you seemed very slim at first and now 8 and a half years in this friendship those consequences have gotten worse. Don't go little one don't leave forever! I will miss the days of having you around not knowing what I will do without you doesn't leave me smiling, it is more of a frown. I never thought I would have to let you go, but we all make mistakes and this one is big.

"In dedication of a very close friend(cat) that was in my life for 8 and a half years and his life is still with us but the chances of him living is 1 in a million.
I will love chuggz forever and always and he will stay by my side dead or alive!"

Life Has Its Up's And Down's

Whenever I am sad or I don't have it my way when I want it too I feel like life is out to get me.
When that happens I think "Anyone would get how I feel!"
But then 2 days later I always wonder "I wonder how I felt when that happened."
When you are life and life is you, you're always going to have up's and down's about everything.
When I tell my mom something she always says "Well thats life."
I never really get that though. To me It's rude... But only when she says it to me.
But sometimes I find myself saying the same thing.
Life has its up's and down's.
When I am mad I take it out on other people even if they weren't involved with it.
And when I'm sad I expect everyone to feel sorry for me.
This happens to all of us. I know its true... Even if you don't admit it.
But, Life has its up's and down's.

Now That You're Gone

It seemed like every time I started trusting you again you left me.
To many times you've done this to me and I'm not ok with the fact that you say sorry and expect me to forgive you over and over again. I don't know what goes around in your head.
I have thought about forgiving you but why should I put the effort in just so you can break my heart again. Even though I don't really show it, but I will always love you for ever.
This expierience that I had to go through makes me realize how much I miss you now that you're gone.

Love or Fate

No matter what you do I am always going to love you for what you are.
Whatever tings you do to make me mad I will forgive you.
Is this Love or Fate?

You are a great friend.
Love me or hate me whatever you end up thinking I am, I'm always going to love you no matter what. When I am around you I feel like nothing else matters.
You are really good to me.
I never want to let you fade away.
All I wonder when I'm around you is if this is Love or Fate?

Jesus in a Hat



I can only seem to watch over the world,
as it sleeps.

With my eyes closed tightly and a motion of minds' breath,
I can see brief glimpses of where I need to be,
to find my rest.

It's so beautifully odd....
like seeing Jesus in a hat.

I've taken many a circle walk, at night.

I've stopped and kissed Lestat,
while stealing lilacs in the comfort of the dark.

I suck on the candied faith,
that somehow grows from the pores of the peaceful.

I do all this, while sitting on the curb.

Standing, may cause my balance to drip,
but I will learn to dance,
inside the timesteps.

Leaves

Leaves

Floating feathers

finely framed

tumbling twirling

timely tamed

slowly setting

silent sleuths

resting regal

rainy roofs

Great Big Eyes

Great big eyes

almost looks wise.

Flopping ears

brings on cheers.

Great big bark

makes him sound smart.

Sloppy wet kisses

good doggie wishes.

Dedicated to Charlie my Springer Spaniel

Trees

With great long limbs

the trees reach out

touch the sky

no need to shout.

The seasons come

the seasons go

trees keeps growing

nice and slow.
