Screaming Loud (+3)

Sculpting with his words,

the verse carved through the silence

—until screaming loud

True Worth

 

An ounce of experience

—is worth 1000 lbs. of why

Watching The Calendar Turn

 

Fighting my memory,

I watched the calendar turn

Flashes of my grandfather

Racing through my mind

Age wasn’t supposed to be like this

Or then…maybe it was

Darkness

Followed by darkness

Then more darkness again

Where is the light

Hours of larceny

Time being stolen

Waiting, waiting

Fighting with my

Memory

—watching the calendar turn

1972 \'Nittany Mountain\' Ladies Choice

 

Dancing to the music

inside a mountain garage

—Laura became my partner

 

Lost within her melody,

found within her words

—never to be alone again
