Fifty years of Rock & Roll
Still roars most emphatically
Within my current mind and ears,
In a perpetual key of B flat.
Tinnitus accompanies my life
Like the soundtrack of a movie.
My heart provides the rhythm,
The mind just composes the script.

Cats are a pleasure
To pet and to love,
Each has its own nature
A real personality
And true bottom line.
I have a happy cat
Who loves me quite well.
He is who he is
With a full blown temper
And a quite content form.

Not yet exactly asleep but
Watching chromatic cartoons
On the back of my eyelids.
A colorful spectacle,
A brain mainframe display,
And remnant of my youths
Psychedelic experiments;
That remains to entertain
Today in my recent antiquity.

For vibrant yellow joy
Give the sun a try.
Its photons stream
O’er all that lives
Upon the reflective
And temperate Earth,
A pleasant saffron balm.

If I could stay awake,
Such things I could do.
The wasted snoring hours
Would be filled with art
And achievement
In full measure.
But my eyes flutter, squint;
Tear and squeeze shut,
The time is lost,
Lethargy leads to dreams,
Slumber will triumph,
The artistry must abide.

I can write a quick poem,
A short dribble of words,
In a very short time.
A brief scatter of sounds
In a rhythmic manner,
For fully phonetic fun.

I paint with language.
Amidst colorful words
I endeavor to tell a story.
To satisfy my small public,
To make merry and comfort
All of my gentle listeners,
To bring delight and humor,
To distract and inspire,
To soothe and beguile
All of my poetic friends.
Thank you.

Flying across the ice
So smooth and dream like
Athletes floating in the cold air
Dancing on the icy stage.
