The best day of my life.

Was the first day I went stock car racing!
When I timed in was the first time I had ever driven the car and I did terrible.
I placed right in the inside front and never saw the back of a car through the entire race. Every time I went around corner one there were my team mates jumping up and down like popcorn. Every time I came around corner four I could see my family and friends cheering for me. The victory lap was great but my family and friends cheering until they were voiceless was the real victory.

Dreams Of Riches

With each cut the carriage rolls back on it's rails
like a cash register
he tally's each
4*4
2*6
4*8
Dreams of riches
keep him working
each day
longer
his day off
this month
memorialised
as a blank square in a full calander
callously resented
in Dollars
His 50 year frame
scant
bent
tired
Dreams of Riches
quiet the ache in his back
and add a spring to his step
He'll be happy when....
but right now............. there's work to do
money to make
and
Drams of Riches

When I Wore The Clothes Of A Man

When I wore the swaddling of a baby
Innocence and wonder cradled me
Oblivious to the worlds great mysteries

When I wore the togs of a child
My world ever widened around me
As I liberated joy from my youth

When I wore the threads of a teen
It brought to light the fire within me
And my future blossomed before me

When I wore the dress of an adult
Responsibilities and life engulfed me
In a world that never seemed ready

When I wore the garments of an ancient
Quiet reflections on a near still pond
Spoke of an appreciation forgotten for awhile

When I wore the gown of a spirit
The heavens rejoiced with me
And carried me on to His next divine task
