I Miss You Folks Already!

Hello Good Blog People,

Just to let you folks know that I will be away for some time as there are urgent personal matters that require my wife and I to return to Canada. Our house in Texas will be sold but we do not have a place in Canada so are not sure when we will be back online. Over the next two weeks, we pack up and drive from Texas to western Canada. We did let our dog “Doc” know that we are going on vacation. He is a blind and deaf senior dog and loves going in the car, especially on vacation!

But, But, Butt

It was a warm, slightly overcast, Thursday afternoon, heading into fall. Two low wattage bulbs barely lit the dark, one room newspaper shack. We called it a shack because it consisted of 2” x 4” materials, with a door, a small steel barred window and without insulation on the walls. My older brother and I finished placing weekly adverts in the papers and headed out to deliver them.

Humour Loves You

Humor is a mysterious word
Humour with “U” should not cause a bird
Testing the waters across the pond
Brits stretch with ease, rather far beyond

Haiku 010

Blogging is healthy
Blogger banter it rewards
Great community

Life’s Table

Most chests hold and clutch sad stories, truths behind each door
Blood may have spilled upon those floors, spattered shore to shore
Son returns, bloody war, casket sealed forever tight
Gone are those who were cut short, no chance to reunite

To Scotland With Love

Ocean washes upon each shore
Love continues forever more
Mother and father far away
Cast line of love every day

Good Luck Charms

Good luck charms work if you truly believe
Health it will sprout, good food morning and eve
Hope for dream jobs they can land in your lap
Forward your CV (Resume) or fall in a trap

Cappuccino Cafe

Humming it is constant, morning, noon and night
Heartbeat of each city, paving oversight
Breathing in and out, a downtown overture
Grasping out for straws, for sure it is unsure

Look Back and Then Ahead

Past reflects our future in many things we do
Hindsight’s greatest vision brought forward in a queue
Rules are broken sometimes, should teach us right from wrong
Ones we learn the first time, indeed could make us strong

Long Distance Call

The numbers are entered
Across the wire they go
My mind feels so centered
Listen to the bell flow
