Puppy Dog Christmas

A Puppy Dog Christmas

Puppy dog dreams of the day he just had
The moon peeking through the winter night clouds
The smells were marvelous of cinnamon and pine
Boxes to investigate and shiny paper to rattle
Visitors at the door, a howling hello
A new toy, a new treat life is so grand
Occasional belly rub, a pat on the head
A puppy dog Christmas, a day to remember
Puppy dog dreams of the day he just had

I was watching my dog Bailey the other morning and this prose came to me. What does my dog think about at Christmas time.

    Roger, I think this is great. But, I have to point out that a few words are missspelled. Just wanted to let you know.

Staying Home for CORVID19

All in all we are handling the stay at home reasonably well. It is not how I expected my first few months of being retired playing out. 2020 has not been a good year so far, with my mother in law passing away in January and now the CORVID19 stay at home orders. So we try to get out of the house every couple days even if its just to run to the post office or to get a couple things from the store. Maggie and I take a walk every couple of days, it/'s good for us to get out. I am spending some time in the backyard working on my gardens and pond. I thought I would share some of my recent garden pictures in this blog: Most of these flowers are around the pond which has come to life this spring.So even when life seems to be challenging the flowers continue to grow and flourish. Maybe we need to be more like the flower and bloom. Until next time... Roger

Vanishing Youth by R.S. Westeren

Vanishing Youth By R. S. Westeren   The closet flows over with pieces of yesterday Baseball gloves that seen dirt, rain and the occasional ball Sneakers worn and stained from playing tag in the yard Air long gone from basketballs and volleyballs Age gives you experiences but also vanishing youth   Suits with wide lapels then so so narrow Ties followed the same just always the opposite Colors changes as the season do, sometimes bold other times pastel Remember when suits were called leisure but were anything but! Age gives you experiences but also vanishing youth     Waist lines spread and walking gets slower Staying up late gets to be earlier and earlier Dinner is now at 4 and breakfast is so early And now I am saying why do they dress like they do? Age gives you experiences but also vanishing youth   The choices you make now are the most important Whether to sit down and wait or to stand up and move U...
