UNLOCK

There’s a simple key
to unlock the weight of stress:
let go and move on.
TO RELY ON NATURE

I’ve come to rely
on the sweet song of nature.
My music of choice.
I RELY ON YOUR STRENGTH

I rely on you,
as the main source of my strength
to lift my burdens.
TRUE AND FALSE

I am old enough
to know true wisdom counts more
than false arrogance.
QUIT THE ‘TUDE

Drop the attitude.
Better than all you are not.
Quit playing the snob.
INSPIRED TO QUIT

At my computer,
I learned to explore my muse
and quit the rat race.
KEEP MOVING

My life moves forward,
looking through the hour glass
to new adventures.
BIRTHDAY

Another birthday.
How quickly they come and go.
But at least they come.
LIKE A NOVEL PLOT

Just like a novel,
life can be a series of
complicated plots.
THE POUNDING RAIN

A single raindrop
gives way to a pounding rain,
saturating lives.
OLD EYES

With these aging eyes,
I find my life a rich one
through my cherished love.
AN OLD APPRECIATION

Older and wiser,
I am thankful for each day
as an unearned gift.
