I won't
I won't look out the window
I won't sit by the door
If you ain't coming
I won't wait any more
I won't sit by the door
If you ain't coming
I won't wait any more
Hot on my heels
I was a kid
Momma I made mad
I had been bad
Down Juniper Street I fled
Hot on my heels
Momma was catching up
I zig I zag
It was no use I had been had
She caught me
By the old Chinabeery Tree
I tried to run
I tried to flee
Them switchings stung like a bee
I could run but so could she
The day I tried outrunning Momma
It didn't work out for me
Momma I made mad
I had been bad
Down Juniper Street I fled
Hot on my heels
Momma was catching up
I zig I zag
It was no use I had been had
She caught me
By the old Chinabeery Tree
I tried to run
I tried to flee
Them switchings stung like a bee
I could run but so could she
The day I tried outrunning Momma
It didn't work out for me
Krystal
Krystal burgers
I do like
Buy a sack
When you go back
Get some fries
Don't forget the chili
A few corn pups
Large Coke in a cup
Krystal burgers
Some can eat many
But for me
Four will be plenty
Whoppers and Big Mac's
They are ok
But for me
I will take Krystal's any day
Small and square
That steamed bun
Mustard onion and a pickle
Go buy me some won't you hun
You do that
For ever I'm grateful
We could be friends
Till the end
Yes Krystal's I like
Best burger around
I'm not bragging just a fact
Buy me a sack next time in town
I do like
Buy a sack
When you go back
Get some fries
Don't forget the chili
A few corn pups
Large Coke in a cup
Krystal burgers

But for me

Elly May
Elly Mae
Not enough words
We can say
She from back in da day
Those hard biscuits used as ammo
Hid in da trees
With her double barrel sling shot
Elly would shoot at me
Elly had a cousin
Jethro Bodine was his name
Being a double naught spy
Was his claim to fame
Then there was Granny
Cooked them vittles
Made her potions
Granny had possum in her kettles
Old Uncle Jed
From the hills of Tennessee
Struck that black gold
Move them all to hills of Beverly
The cement pond
Ghosts in the walls
Neighbors Drysdales and Miss Jane
I sure miss them all
Not enough words
We can say
She from back in da day
Those hard biscuits used as ammo
Hid in da trees
With her double barrel sling shot
Elly would shoot at me

Jack and Jill
Jack and Jill
They climbed that hill
Jack had a plan
So did Jill
Jill had a gun
A 357 mag
Oh that bad Jill
She had took some pills
Poor ole Jack
Know what Jill did
Shot Jack in the back
Just for a thrill
Well Jack died
Jill didn't even cry
She was found guilty of murder one
Now poor ole Jill they did fry
Moral of story
I don't have one
I wrote this
Just for fun

We grew up
November 1963
I remember the day
Man named JFK
They blew him away
A Friday I was 11
About 2 pm in the day
Principal came on loud speaker
This is what he had to say
The place was Texas
Dallas was the town
Things we heard made us frown
Since that time US been going down
Innocence was lost
End of Camelot
We grew up
We learned alot

Life
Life is precious
Life is so short
Life so dear
Life we do abort
Little babies in the womb
Little souls growing strong
Little babies never a chance had
Little babies did nothing wrong
Grandma Grandpa past their day
Grandma Grandpa they raised us
Grandma Grandpa we should honour
Grandma Grandpa we put them away
People we kill
People we cheat
People we hate
People our life's are bleak
Come a day we repent
Come a day Jesus will be back
Come a day we will answer
Come a day we resent

Those dead eyes
Those dead eyes
That blank stare
When you have it
It's more than I can bare
That no speaking
That quiet house
When you do it
Feels like fire I've been doused
The slamming of the door
The room does shake
When you leave
It's more than I can take
When you lie
It does hurt
I won't worry
Cause I did try
That blank stare
When you have it
It's more than I can bare
That no speaking
That quiet house
When you do it
Feels like fire I've been doused
The slamming of the door
The room does shake
When you leave
It's more than I can take
When you lie
It does hurt
I won't worry
Cause I did try
Born down here
Born down here
Hold it against me
Got my ways
Don't miss them days
Born down here
Got my way of talking
Have a way of thinking
Don't like it start walking
Born down here
I love everyone
Not like some of you
Down here way it's done
Born down here
Got my customs
Got my past
Them things didn't last
Born down here
Time we change
We could do better
Right here in LaGrange
Hold it against me
Got my ways
Don't miss them days
Born down here
Got my way of talking
Have a way of thinking
Don't like it start walking

Blame
I hear them cry
Some of them die
It's a shame
Who is the blame
Didn't anyone care
No love to share
Was it so hard
Why couldn't you be there
What goes around
It comes around
That's what they say
Worry about judgement day
Some of them die
It's a shame
Who is the blame
Didn't anyone care
No love to share
Was it so hard
Why couldn't you be there
What goes around
It comes around
That's what they say
Worry about judgement day
Free
I look around and see
People in drama
I'm so glad it's not me
Really I'm not doing bad
Worse times could be had
No one to hassle me
I like just being free
Out of sight
Out of mind
Thank you very much
I'm doing just fine

My friend and me
That time of day
Almost night
All is good
I can have my say
Peace comes to me
Life as I want it
Way it should be
Wish it would stay
Now free to think
Write what on mind
Quiet way I like
Wish this way all time
Not missing anything
Where I should be
This is for us
My friend and me

Done and over
Things in brain
Can cause pain
Memories of past
Things didn't last
Wish could forget
Those things regret
Need to change
Lose that pain
No use crying
Done and over
Just keep living
Don't quit trying

Leaves changing
Beautiful sight
Change here
It will happen
No use fight
Try as you might

Chosen few
Momma and Daddy worked in the mills
My belly always filled
Never went barefooted unless I wanted
Never was I taunted
Lint heads we where called
Some sure had gall
Poor but proud
Never boasting or loud
I had love and a name
My only claim to fame
Poor and never knew
Maybe we where the chosen few
Blast from the past
Blast from the past.My cousin Gail sent me this photo.I never had seen it before.I'm the dorky kid in the middle with Momma and Daddy.I must have been about 13 or so.This was taken at the old home place at East Newnan,Georgia.Many a summer night was spent camping out in this backyard.My best friend Doug lived next door and that was a fun time in my life.On the left you can see the start of a tree house.The year was most likely 1965.What a time !

Sun's rays
I'm not supposed to feel this way
At times hard to face a new day
My eyes are blinded
By the sun's rays
I do know better
But it's the real me
I keep sliding back
Never will I be really free
Put on a show
Try to act

Let no one know
That you're ready to crack
Smile even if fake
Do what's expected
Try to please
Even if it's all you can take
Sometimes
Sometimes I forget
Life's been a trip
Sometimes been fine
Met some who where kind
Sometimes I want to forget
Things that where bad
All them things that sad
Those times had
If I do forget
You always remember
This is true
I did love you
Sunday, September 16, 2012
God call home
Mom and Dad
They are gone
Here I am
All alone
Will come time
To gather again
Wait till then
All be fine
God call home
A family again
No more tears
No more pain
Wednesday, September 12, 2012
Try to forget
Visions of places past
Memories that didn't last
Another time
Another place
Life once had
Try to forget
All those regrets

One extreme follows another
Laying here at night with the big window open is nice.I like it.AC is off and the cool fallish air blowing on my face feels great.The night sounds I like also.Cars and big trucks on US 29 and last night I noticed something never heard before.Crows fussing about something.They where upset or maybe just enjoying the weather.Mornings they are the first things I notice but never have I heard them late at night before.
Days are still warm but these nice nights I can live with.The trees are starting to change now.They have that dull green and brown look to them.
Winter skipped Georgia last year it was so mild.I have always heard one extreme follows another.So if that is true maybe this is going to be a cold winter for Georgia.That's ok and maybe throw in some snow also.That would be different and enjoyed.

Beautiful day
Cool fall morn
Crows they cay
Sky so blue
A beautiful day
Pine trees sway
No sound heard
Everything being still
A beautiful day
Sunday, September 9, 2012
Day is over
Day is over
Did I do my best
Did I try
Did I just get by
Did I smile
Did a kind word say
Did I help anyone
Did I make their day
Sleep
Sleep wasn't easy
In deep thought
Of things done
Of battles fought
New day here
Time start over
Peace I have
Hope it last

It's that simple
I probably don't fit the idea of what some people would call christian.Suits and ties is not my style.I can honestly say I'm not a church goer even though I'm a member of one.Not proud of that.I have opportunities to go but I don't.Some might be shocked at the music I like.My sense of humor might not fit in with others.I have what some would call a dark side.Far from perfect and asking for help and forgiveness daily is me.At times I feel like a hypocrite.Unworthy of God's love and His forgiveness.
But He has.God has set me free.Not free of struggles and hardships.Not free of sickness or sadness.Not free of broken hearts or loneliness.Being christian doesn't guarantee a life free of any of this.But I am free of eternal death.Don't get me wrong I will die.But I have the promise of God that I will live in His Heavenly home for eternity.
Why do I tell you these things about me?Maybe it needed saying.If a sinner like me can find God's love,forgiveness and grace anyone can.
It is simple.Just ask God for forgiveness and believe that His Son Jesus died for our sins and was resurrected from the grave.It's that simple.
A calling for me
I think maybe there is a calling for me.The need to write.Not for fame or fortune but to be a voice for those no one hears.A voice for the disabled,the helpless and the hopeless.A voice for those forgotten and thrown away.A voice for people who don't fit the norm.
This is on my heart tonight.The Bible teaches us that those who believe in God and follow in His son Jesus footsteps have a calling.
Maybe I have found mine.
Goat named Billy
Once I rode a goat named Billy
The terrain sure was hilly
Only three years old
At that age we are bold
Grandpa and Daddy
Set me on that goat
Down that hill I did float
That goat threw me off
I lost my shoe
Ended up black and blue
Everything said it is true

Oh so flirty
Cute as can be
Oh so flirty
Makes me wish
Again I was thirty
Yes your fine
And so kind
It's no jive
You make me feel alive
You so pretty
Anyone can see
You make me stutter
My heart do flutter
Close my eyes
The world is bad
It makes me sad
Of things that go on
Close my eyes
Shut my ears
Can't stand their tears
I hear people cry
Some want to die
I just want to hide
Please Lord help
Don't want to end up that way
That is my prayer today
Tuesday, September 4, 2012
You won't know
Here I am
Lost my plan
Times need a hand
Took wrong road
I'm not bold
Don't have to be told
Which way I turn
Wrong I burn
I did learn
I did try
Tried not to lie
To you goodbye
My feelings never show
You won't know
Keeping things low
Smile be glad
Even if mad
Never look sad
I'm am through
With you
This is true
Laying low
Laying low
Going with the flow
Flying under the radar
Doing good so far
Try be cool
Don't act a fool
Don't hesitate
Just cooperate
It will be fine
Good in time
Don't ring any chimes
Walk that line

Guaranteed to thrill
Burger and fries
Such a treat
Burger and fries
Can't be beat
Burger and fries
Loved by many
Burger and fries
Cook up plenty
Burger and fries
Love burnt red meat
Burger and fries
Come on now lets eat

Little puter
I must clean my screen
It's looking a little green
Keyboard sure is dusty
So dirty it makes my fingers rusty
Speakers sound scratchy
When listening to Molly Hatchet
My poor little puter
Only thing can do is shoot'er
I surf the net
It sure is fun
This I bet
Seen it all and all I done
From A to Z
What else can there be
Only look at the stuff that's free
Some nights keeps me up to three
Have you ever
Have you ever been used
Have you ever been abused
Have you ever been amused
Have you ever been confused
Have you ever been happy
Have you ever been sad
Have you ever been glad
Have you ever been mad
Have you ever cried
Have you ever lied
Have you ever tried
Have you ever died

Don't try this
Fun things to do when you're an only child.Don't try this at home kiddos but it was fun for me.Raised with no siblings I got bored alot when I was a kid.Never was anything done that was mean but the word would be mischievous or curious.A favorite thing was to mix all the things in the bathroom medicine cabinet to gather in the sink.Sometimes you get a good smoke and that question from your Mom what are you doing in there.Another fun thing is taking your Mom's hairspray and a lighter and making a blow torch.One word for that.Cool.Take a thermometer put it in the fridge and sooner or later they will freeze and bust.The dangers of mercury poisoning I knew nothing about then.I put to gather and collected plastic model cars.Every so often after a big collection was on hand I had well putting it lightly wrecks.Lighter fluid makes big fiery crashes and when the plastic is hot you can mould all sorts of dings into your models.
There are more things I could mention but I'm afraid some impressionable kid might try it and you know that wouldn't be pretty.
So being an only child is not all that bad.Gives you a chance to use your imagination.
Blue moon
I have a saying.Wait till the next blue moon.Well it's here that blue moon so all them things promised guess today is the day to get busy and do it.By the way blue moon for those who don't know simply means two full moons in one month.It happens but not very often.So with that said I will say see ya or wait till the next blue moon.

Change coming soon
Hurricane in the Gulf Of Mexico heading for New Orleans.Seven years to the day since Katrina devastated N.O.Here in west Georgia just a steady rain coming down.I've only been through one hurricane and that was Opal in 1995.It was something to see.Trees and power poles bent over like a big strong giant's hand had just push them over.It was more of a pest than any thing.No power for a week.Instant coffee for that time.One word will describe it and I wont say it here.
So just looking out the window at the steady rain coming down and I like it.The view of busy Highway 29 and the trees is very relaxing to me.The trees have that look to them.Washed out green color and yesterday I seen a lone yellow leaf floating to Earth.A sure sign of a change coming soon.
Days of cooler weather and nice open the window at night time.Sounds of crickets on a fall night will relax you into a deep sleep.Smell of burning leaves and wood smoke from a fireplace are a favorite of mine.Thoughts of homemade chili and vegetable soup with cornbread a part of the cooler weather.Crisp cool mornings that make you feel alive.
Yes fall is on the way.Never have I met anyone who disliked the season.

Nothing to write
Can't shed light
Things are tight
I'ts a fright
Nothing to say
On this Monday
Here I stay
Want no fray
What to do
Won't hurt you
I am true
At times blue
Love I miss
It was bliss
Like the kiss
Me you dis
Like a snake
Kill with rake
I can't take
All was fake
Red cup update
Update on red cup.Yesterday as I was eating breakfast I noticed a red plastic cup in the road.Eating with one hand and typing with the other my feelings on the cup where wrote.
All through the day I noticed that red cup.It finally made it to the sidewalk out of the road in plain view of me still.
This morning the end of the red cup came.I noticed someone wearing an orange vest picking up trash on the side of the road.Someone doing community service for some crime they had committed.
Now the red cup is gone.Gone to where ever the red cups of this world end up.Once new,shiny,useful and needed it is in away like what all of us will end up some day.
Discarded and thrown away like that red cup.
Works for me
Oh boy.Headache time today.I've had this cold or something for a week now.Always heard a cold settles in the weakest part of your body.Mine always in up in my head.That means something what I don't know.
Anyway the cure is on the way.A fresh hot cup of coffee.That always helps me.I read that why it does is that caffeine opens up the blood vessels in your brain and the blood flow is better.So if that is true or not I have no proof but it works for me.
Dream

I knew it was a dream as I was dreaming it.Least I think so anyway.I was at this old house,run down and really ugly to me.People I know where living there with me some I could see their faces others I could not but they where there.Some where living and one I know,my cousin who died a few years ago was there.She was on top of the house doing some roofing work with another lady not recognized.I could hear people talking but a tall hill had to be climbed to reach them and every time I tried down falling I would come.
I wanted to tell them about the most beautiful sight I was seeing.Looking out from the yard at the old run down house I could see this.The waters edge came right up to the edge of the yard.It was a perfect view I was looking at.It was an extremely large harbor with ferry boats and smaller ones headed in the same direction.Away from the house and towards a big city.I could see tall skyscrapers and lots of buildings.I knew the name of that city.It was New York City.
What this all means I don't know.I just had this feeling to write about my dream of last night.

Human way
Whats old now new
Guess ideas are few
The tried and true
Are things we do
Afraid to break away
Scared to take a chance
Save the hard things for another day
That is the human way
Don't be a hog

Butter scotch hard candy.At one time it was one of my favorites.I remember laying in the alley behind the house one cool fall evening eating butter scotch candy from a bag.Like every thing I did as a kid it was over done.My fault no else to blame.About 8 years old and not to smart I ate the whole bag.It was a Thursday evening and I remember thinking it was the the night one of my favorite TV shows came on.Whirlybirds.I barely made it back to the house.Talk about sick I was.I had OD'ED on butter scotch hard candy.Till this day if I see,smell or even think of that candy I feel queasy.Just writing this makes me well sick.The moral of this story is don't be a hog and share your butter scotch hard candy.

Stormy mood
I have this need to write today.But the subject escapes me at the moment.Can't focus on one thing all these thoughts are going through my brain.I'm going a hundred miles per hour and spinning my wheels.
I'm just taking in everything around me.Hummingbirds outside my window have took up a lot of my attention today.Two of them flirting around the feeder doing what who knows .Are they fighting,flirting or just playing.Reminds me of a pair on a seesaw back and forth.
My mood today I would call stormy. A good day for a rain.That would be fun just laying back watching it come down.Might get that chance next week because some tropical storms are down south and headed this way.No floods or hurricanes please thank you.
Oh well maybe later something interesting will come to me.Till then this will have to do.

Daddy just stopped by

Daddy just stopped by.Guess he was checking up on me.He didn't stay long but it sure was nice him visiting me for awhile.
Daddy has been dead for 20 years now.Before you start thinking I've gone completely wacky let me explain.
Daddy always used Lucky Tiger hair oil that he bought from the barber shop.Every so often I get this strong smell of that tonic.When I smell it I always feel like he is checking up on me.Sorta like being my guardian angel.It is a nice feeling.
Stop by anytime Daddy.Love and miss you.
Caught in a phase shift
The natives are restless today.Short tempered and fussy.I woke at 5am and noticed it real quick like.I think the butter has slid off a lot of folks biscuits.Could be a full moon is on the way.Maybe people are caught in a phase shift and their good side is being blocked.What ever the reason I'm laying low going with the flow today.Help us all we may need it.
The red badge of courage
Red badge of courage.I think we all have suffered from it at some point in our life.For those who are not familiar with it this explains it.There was a movie and most likely a book about a solider who was in the Civil War.During the heat of battle he deserted his post and was running away.On his flight from the fighting he struck his head on a low hanging tree branch.Knocked unconscious and bleeding from his accidental head wound he was found by his comrades.
His fellow soldiers thought he had been shot while fighting the battle.They where treating him as a hero.The solider did not confess his real reason for being wounded.He was told how brave and fearless he had been while other soldiers confessed of being terrified and had run away from the battle.
Ashamed of his actions the solider went along with the with the praise he was receiving.But all this had a profane affect on him.He found out that he wasn't the only one who had been afraid and deserted the fight.In the next battle he rallied his comrades and led them into battle.Still afraid but now not ashamed of being afraid because he knew everyone else was also.
So the red badge of courage he wore.We all have at some point in our life.Taking credit for things not earned or deserved.Not telling the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

What can I say about you
What can I say about you
About all the wonderful things you do
Things that are nice
You don't mind doing twice
What can I say about you
Things that are good and true
How you go far far out of your way
So I can have a wonderful pleasant day
What can I say about you
How proud you are
To me you are a star
I have faith that you will go far
On a star lit Georgia night
Sound of a whipper will
On a star lit Georgia night
Always been to me a delight
Croaking of bull frogs around a pond
On a star lit Georgia night
Always a sound that's fond
Wind through the pines
On a star lit Georgia night
Always a sound I think is fine
Fire flies filling the sky
On a star lit Georgia night
Always a beautiful sight

Places
Places I know
Sugar Hill
The S curve
Skeeter Flats
Places like this
Bacon Level
Population fifty
Places that are nifty
Eagle,Alabama
Yes it's a place
Standing Rock
No bigger than a city block
These places are real
There are many more
Naming them all
Would be a chore
Exposing my heart
Where should I start
How much should I say
Without exposing my heart
I have things to say
Should I keep them to myself
These feelings I deal with every day
I think a lot
Early in the morn till late at night
It does nothing but trouble it got
Leave things alone
Don't rock the boat
Keep the burden inside it I can tote
Even if alone
Fall is coming soon
I feel it in my bones
Times like that
Wish I was home
Where I felt safe and secure
Where the memories are so dear
Wish I was home
Even if alone
Cooking and cleaning
I don't mind
It was a good way
To past away time
Yes to be back home
Life was good
Felt like it should
Even if alone
Stroke of good luck
A stroke of good luck
Has come my way
Twenty dollars twenty bucks
I did find today
How should I spend it
What should I do
If you where here
I would spend it on you
We could eat some tacos
Maybe a pizza to share
That sounds good
Oh yeah we should
Yes that I would do
I would gladly share with you
Yep twenty bucks found
Get yourself ready lets go to town
Guess I'm getting old
Snap crackle pop
Think I'm getting old
Least that's what
I've been told
Hair getting gray
My beard to
Yes I'm getting old
What can I do
My memory is fading
This is true
Guess what now
I can't remember you
Guess this happens to us all
Now I'm just old
If I may say so
If I may be so bold
Call me lazy
You can call me crazy
But I must be getting old
Because things are a little hazy

Life as it should be
If life was like it should be
I would like living in a tree
In a tree house way up high
The roof almost touching the sky
If life was the way I wanted
All children would be happy
Never to be hurt or taunted
Every child would know their Daddy
If I had my way and had a say
Everyone would be free from hunger
Enough for all every day
That should be the American way
If life was fair
Everyone would really care
Free from fear and pain
There would be no injustice to bare

I feel crappy
I feel crappy
I need a nappy
Woke up at three
Sick as could be
Head was hurting
Sore throat to
Took a Tylenol
What else could I do
I feel better
Just light headed
Think I will make it
If not I'll just fake it
Heaven or Hell
Heaven or Hell
Choice up to you
What you believe
What you do
I don't know
But I've been told
Hell is hot
There your soul will rot
God is all
Jesus is his Son
Where we go
Depends on what we done
If you know you know
Where you will go
Jesus is the light
He will save your life

All things southern
Things all southern
I know alot
Them old things
We never forgot
Things like grits
With buttered biscuits
Taters piled high
Gotta be fried
Co Colas and peanuts
Moonpies they fine
First class cuisine
We do dine
Dale Earnhardt
Junior too
Richard Petty
Love that blue
Red Georgia clay
In we play
Watermelon we eat
On summer day
Yes I'm southern
Born and bred
Here be buried
When I'm dead
Life
Short is life
Full of strife
We are here
Full of fear
Some days good
Lot are bad
Do best can
With what have
Take in stride
Our time abide
One at time
On my mind
Enjoy each minute
Time will come
When there none
Life then done

My Dear Jane
You are crazy
Wacky can be
Nutty you are
Batty yes sir'ree
This is plain
My Dear Jane
You never change
Bad Like Cain
Caused some pain
Way you act
Stabbed me back
My Dear Jane
Take the train
Use the tracks
Don't come back
My Dear Jane
Don't you cry
Stop your lie
I nearly die
My Dear Jane
Grand Pa
Grand Pa Haynes
I miss you
Bootlegger and moonshiner
Did your best
Kept family fed
Better than rest
Grand Pa Haynes
Find no fault
Lesson you taught
Grand Pa Smith
I never met
You Baptist preacher
Son was teacher
Grand Pa Smith
You died young
Grand Ma fret
At your death
Grand Pa Smith
Hope to meet
Walking barefooted
Walking barefooted
This I like
Walking on thick grass
Such a blast
Careful though
Don't stump your toe
Watch those splinters
They you can get
Shoes in house
They not needed
Never made sense
Wasted money spent
Walking barefooted
Way to go
Them ole shoes
You can throw
Salad day
What to do
What to say
Where to go
Where to stay
Today is Friday
My salad day
Big and tall
Eat it all
Stacked fully loaded
Salads be fine
Eaten all time
Fine way dine
Great with tater
Good with pizza
Salads they are
Dressing from jar
Only thing wrong
Don't last long

My excuse
Well. Today what I wrote probably didn't make much sense.Excuse me but writing was a little bit hard today.This is the story why.I like tomatoes.Home grown tomatoes to be specific.Little small tomatoes just right for snacking on and snack I have been doing.I think maybe I over done this snacking on tomatoes.I have an allergy of some sort and maybe tomatoes are the cause.My face is red and blotchy and it stings.For the first time in my life I took an allergy pill.Well guess what?They make you sleepy and dozy and that I was and still am for that matter.So if what I wrote today sounded a bit off the wall that is why.That is my excuse and I'm sticking by it.
Crow Hop
Bush Head shoals
Crow Hop to
Places never got
You're to young
I was told
It's to rough
Places on river
There you fish
Now I'm old
I no wish
Them places fish
Them dirt roads
Them dirt roads
Dusty and muddy
Smell of clay
On summer day
That red dirt
Will ruin shirt
Bluejeans it stains
Cleaning a pain
Them dusty roads
Almost gone now
They from past
Hope some last

Broken heart pain
Close my heart
Open never again
Long time heal
Broken heart pain
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain
Broken heart pain
Best being alone
When love gone
Men do cry
Some even die
It no shame
Broken heart pain
Not about you
Don't be vain
It be about
Broken heart pain
Down to ocean
Down to ocean
Where I belong
Crashing of waves
Sand under feet
Grass hut live
On the beach
Life I need
Life I want
Setting sun see
Beautiful to me
In another time
Maybe this mine
Happy and carefree
Life for me
Down to ocean
Down to sea
Took a pill
Took a pill
For my knee
Now it feels
Like should be
I did sleep
Only little bit
Last night I
Didn't sleep none
That no fun
Feels pretty good
Still can't run
But that ok
That pill did
Save the day
Wait and see
The trees have that look.Changing now it seems.They are not that deep dark green.Their color is washed out green.Could it be because of the extreme hot weather this summer or is fall going to come early?Sunday reminded me of an early fall day.It was so nice.I have heard that one extreme follows another so if that is true guess this winter will be a cold one.
We will just have to wait and see.

Steady like a tree
Sun is shining
It is raining
Devil beating his wife
What it's called
The Devil he's no good
Causes nothing but strife
Want to do good
Live life like I should
Temptations they are abound
Every where I turn they around
Try hard I will
Cause Jesus has paid the bill
He died for our sins
For you and me
Now we are set free
All born sinners that is true
How we act up to you
Life a hard row to hoe
At times need patience of Job
Jesus has set me free
I must stand steady like a tree
For the plan God has for me
You make it possible
Hulu
I thank you
You make it possible
With you I'm able
To watch TV without cable
All my favorites from the past
They such a blast
Back when TV was fun
3 channels black and white
That little dot on screen went out every night
Now TV on 24/7
Channels of every type
Hate to say most just hype
Back then them 3 channels black and white
TV was fun we didn't gripe
Talk with you
Nothing to do
So I will talk to you
What ya been doing
What ya up to
Hope things good
Behaving like you should
Know you are
Keep that up
And you will go far
Ok I enjoyed our chat
I got things to do
But later I be back
Just to talk with you
All over town
Stormy day
Rain looks like here to stay
But that's ok
Farmers they do need it
They been praying and pleading
All over town
This rain causing no frowns
Monday, August 13, 2012
That don't forget
I'm ok
So are you
We going to make it
That is true
You cheer up
Don't you be blue
Me and you
We be friends
Got each other
Till the end
Others will forget us
That I know
Sometimes it easy to get
Down and out
Your friend I will be
That don't forget
So long and goodbye
All is good
As Under Dog said
Never fear
I am here
No more tears
Time and the years
They do pass
Really it's been a gas
Enjoy least try
Time that left
No time to cry
So to you I say
So long and goodbye
Heartbreak
Heartbreak is a pain
I'm through with that game
Never again will I
Have to say good bye
Not going to trust
To much of a fuss
Them days over
All it got me was
Grayer and older
So guarding my heart
My love I keep
Never to part

I need a line
Into the blank screen I stare
Judas Priest on YouTube plays
Just here waiting on end of the day
Not much to do
Not much to say
Random thoughts I have
Some good
Some sad
None are bad
I know
That was a cheap rhyme
But it did save time
Didn't prep
Didn't think
Yep you guessed next line
This little dilly going to stink
What could I say
That will save the day
I need a line
That will make this dilly sound fine
Something smart
Something bright
Something that sounds just right
This could be a long one
How am I getting out of this
Hold on I've just begun
Now I have it
Know what to say
It's been fun
Have a good day
Hummingbirds
Hummingbirds I see
Things not much bigger
Than a bumble bee
Morn noon night
They in flight
Rain or shine
They don't mind
Things I see
Things I see
Some bother me
I see souls
That want to be free
Trapped in their misery
This can't be their history
But it's their destiny
Nothing can be done
For them no more hope
No more days in sun
Enjoyed by me
A pretty day
All I can say
Just came in
That's where I've been
Mid August it is
But felt like fall day
Enjoyed by me
I will say
Care to guess
More like this
On the way

15
15 on a summers night
Smell of Formosa
Fills the air
15 not a care
Doors Light My Fire
We do hear
Young hearts
Full of cheer
15 on a summers night
Everything is alright
Thought feeling would last
Only if could
15 on a summers night
Everything is sweet
All is good
You
You get me tongue tied
You make me blush
Talking with you
Gives me such a rush
You can make me mad
Make my blood boil
Around you I see double
Really you're nothing but trouble
You I don't like
Please leave me alone
Just take a hike
Go far away
Have a nice day
Inspiration
Come on inspire me
I need to write
Nothing sappy or sad
Something witty and bright
Let it be good not bad
Come on help me now
You can do it if you try
Don't make me beg
Don't make me cry
I need inspiration
End my desperation
Careful of my thoughts
Got to line my hat with tin foil today.This is the reason why.Last night I was thinking how nice a cup of chipped ice would be.I had a hot Coke and ice was needed.Never did I ask for a cup but would you believe that someone brought me a cup and I asked whats this.They answered and said the ice you wanted.So my brain must be sending out these signals and thoughts to people.I must be careful of what I'm thinking.Like the old joke they must have esp or is that ESPN.
Today
Today I write happy thoughts
Not about battles fought
Of cheerful nice things
Things that are sweet
Things that are bright
Look at things in another light
Today no fights
Love everyone
Peace to all
Talk to ya later
Take care y'all

World peace
World peace
My plan
Everybody do this
Pick a day
Everyone boy girl woman man
Have a weenie roast
All at same time
Hard to fight
With hot dog in hand
World peace
My plan
High on the hog
A good trade I think.This is the deal.Roommate had an extra sausage biscuit.A real pork sausage not one of those fake turkey things.I had waffles and sugar free syrup that didn't look so good to me. So we swapped.Now I'm all set with a real pork sausage biscuit and some OJ for a mid day snack.Guess you could say I'm eating high on the hog.
