13. EDDIE POEM - penned enroute to Dublin on an airline serviette
Oh! To land in Dublin With Eddie Burns on the Isle I don't have to drink tonight Knowing tomorrow I'll be doing the drinking for a while There's a full Moon flying over Ireland And briefly all seems right in this world These are the moments you'd like for to last Like a first date with your Forever girl And the winds they…

I see it, I hear it, I feel it
I’ve loved him a thousand years Don’t laugh It might be a thousand years on a distant planet some 30 years ago at least plus everyday since Some days remind me of the first day there’s so much about the man Not to be unromantic because it does feel Romantic but He could be an enchanted box of kitchen matches Keep them dry…

2024 National Poetry Month Poems
Simmered a potato soup at 4 o'clock. The morning storm crumbled and sputtered as I added purple dulse, topped it with balsamic vinegar. **************************** Monday morning music louder than expected.

Do You Want to Draw Daily for a Year?
I'm not an illustrator, but I have tried to find something in the scratching I do with a pen and paper. It would be interesting to see if anything changes as not much has changed each time I try to draw. Maybe when I draw a coffee cup it will look like a coffee cup. Any current drawings of coffee cups look like…

Restrictions blow out the creative spark that is ready to flame into life. Dragons must be free and uninhibited. The Dragon is a…

Sweet beats and potato head ears
We’re so lucky! Our favorite cooks, they concocted, they imagined, created, and baked us some sweet sweet beets Bring on the lofty lines of melody! How about some prestissimo wheels to move us? (It’s in the back room, waiting) All I heard was a distant rumble behind a door, but there's been some muffled promise from back…

Why is there so much movement in this painting?
I saw this painting at the Philips Collection in DC. I bought a little postcard of it, and it still amazes me. There is so much movement in it. I'm trying to figure out why. Is it because of the lines or the placement of light. What do you think it is? John Biggers, Kumasi Market. It can be viewed…

State of Love and Trust - written on a set list - request from a UK based fan.
I am 55 years old and have been coping with cancer over the last 9 years.
