Poem on Thursday

   
                                                They All Bow Down

     They all bow down for the Queens passing.

     They have paved the way with pine needles and leaves to soften her approach.

     They reach out to touch her , they tug at her hair, they snag her sleeve.

     They get overjoyed by her presences that they grab at her stomach , face,
   
    Legs, and even her back.

     When she get back to her castle and undresses for her bath, She sees

     Where her subjects had touched her with their willowy branches.

     The bruise on her right calf was a small token from a broken limb .

     That she had raced by in such a hurry that she didn't see it reaching out.

     The Queen promised herself not to ride so close to her subjects again.

      Oh and to start carrying clippers.




   "Ode to all my Quad and dirt bike loving friends"

Poem on Thursday

                      




















Never A Waste Of Time.


I have often thought about you all day long.
I have spent many a night dreaming about you.
I have never once thought of it as a waste of my time.


I have spent many a hours writing poems " Ode to you".
I have wandered  a many a path following a vision of you.
I  have never thought one written word or one step a waste of my time.


I have spent many a years of heartbeats loving you,
I have taken in breath after breath breathing in the essence of you.
I know not of one heartbeat ,one breath was ever a waste .


I shall live by your side all of my life.
I know if this is all I have to offer you.
I know that it will never have been a waste of my time.
