On Wheels of Periwnkle

I roll along
and people stare
at this rather odd-looking contraption
on wheels and metal with handle bars,
no less.

I march,
to my own beat
on my walker,
as I soar over bumps
I have wings of
periwinkle!

The sleek and shiny metal
feels cool to my touch
like water from a cooler
my walker is: Sleek and shiny
a snazzy sight.

I smile to myself
as I think
of my shiny contraption
and my wheels of,
periwinkle.

The Snowman

On a cold winnter morning
a blanket of white
has fallen to the ground
during the night I came
to surprize the girls and boys.

A small animal
on two legs and bundled in hat and gloves
came over to my patch of snow.
He started pushing and rolling and hurting me,
his scarf would not stay around his neck
so it kept hitting me.

The animal, which I assumed was a boy
made three balls out of my patch of snow
the biggest he put on the bottom
and each one was smaller.

When he was through
he told me I needed eyes and a mouth,
and said he'd be right back.
With the aid of a lady, whom I assumed was his mom,
he poked a carrot into me for a nose, he says
and four dried beans for a nose
and two jellybeans for eyes, he says with great pride
as he stabs me repeatedly.

Now for the finising touches, he smiles
as he drapes me
with a blue and white striped fuzzy thing
and places an artist cap on me;
time for the arms, which are sticks
with mittens on the end of them, for all to see
and he stabs me again.

Standing back he smiles
and says,
isn't my snowman great!
His mom smiles back and pats him on the head.
!Let's go inside where it's warm", she says.
As they turn to go,
I wonder if he'll come back and play.

Wandering And Confused

Today I struggle
The choices
Flow into my mind
Like a stream into a pool

My mind is flooded
with this and that
a mad...
rushing
tidal wave

I;m unsure of myself
my thoughts and emotion's
torment me like the waves torment the rocks
beating them down.

Confusion,
peace,
a bubbling, gurgling stream
a stream unsure of its destination
wandering in search of a home
Like me, wandering and confused.

HOPE

All around us we see gloom and doom:
people getting cancer and people being diagnosed with
terminal diseases,
war and famine,
people dying senselessly,
and countless natural disasters.

All around us
we see images of reality
a cruel and heartless reality,
unrelenting and unforgiving reality,
a reality which stares us in the face each and every day.

We feel down and distraught
and rightly so
but look around
there is always someone
worse off than you.

When life has got you down
and you feel like you are at the end of your rope
don't give up,
Reach out and help someone else
and in doing so, let them help you.
