Bday Me

Another decade brand spanking new
Let's waltz together
Through the misting dew
We'll clear our heads
With cider and chance
As we spin together in this happy dance

Work reflection haiku

All systems are down
No one taking off today
Cue all the complaints!

Chance haiku

Sunrise to sunset
We all place our luckiest bets
Hoping for a win

Patience

When will it be easier
Than it is right now?
To make the rounds go slower
Stretching from stern to bow?

Tell me to be patient
That I'll gladly do
Until the mighty forever
Comes shining through and through

SB28

Cheer as you will
We'll attack the swill
And talk through the score
Before heading out the door
No fancy spanx for us
We're amazed by the fuss
But enjoy the night
It's the big boys' fight!

Past pleasure

Feeling the sun despite the clouds
Enjoying the up only chords can bring
Falling into the past of notes swirled together
Of emotions felt when we were younger

Lovely days of bliss and pain
Wondering if and what and when
Knowing only what our friends said
Living life outside, not in our head

Recharge

Feeling fine despite the pain
Knowing with smiles there's much to gain
Hoping to find a safer spot
One that's cooler & not so hot
A flickering moment of cool respite
To recharge batteries & clear the sight

Stuck

A cutting word is all it takes
From there it's easy to make mistakes
Bruised and hurting we sit and stare
The silence an almighty dare
To talk is something very hard
It would mean letting down the guard

Shine

Of brilliance I have not
No answers have I got
But perseverance counts a lot
And all I have is what I've sought

Condo

Splash away
We've come to play
No more cares
We'll be caught unawares
But it won't matter
'Cause it's fun we're after
