Life on Earth

It starts when two cells
get together and multiply
growing into a mass,
that turns into an embryo
that turns into a baby.
As we grow
we become children
Living in a world
covered with millions of living things.
Seeing some for the first time.
Our minds learn and grow
we are in the middle
between children and young adults
As we grow up
Each of us has our unique experiences
that shape our whole person.
When we pass from this existance
into the next,
If one of my angel friends
askes me, "What did you think
of your life on Earth."
I will answer
"Interesting, but too short."

Jealousy

Her jealosy was a blaze
as big as the orange sun.
It reached out to scorch the faces
of her close ones.
They wept and left.

She was alone
burning in her rage.

Interesting Family

How did a married couple
grow such a variety of children?
From a mother of ten
to a single, never married women,
A doctor of philosophy
to a motorcycle drag race champion.
Musicians, writers and at least one artist.
Each with their own passions and temperments
Some of what we have in common is intelligence,
Humor, and a desire to be helpful.
The important thing is
that we love and adore each other.
