Writer's Collapse

I forgot the thought in my head
while washing dishes.
It fulfilled the void of
being annoyed with someone's wishes.

My hopes and desires
won't soon retire
to remember the initial plot.
The thought so good
it understood the feelings that were wrought.

But sadly I search
with no recollection
of the original verse.
A momentary lapse
of writer's collapse
A temporary creative curse.

Valentine's Haiku

More valuable
than a dozen red roses
The words, "I Love You".


Cupid's arrow flies
You appear before my eyes
My heart's filled with Love.


Emotions combined
Devotion is yours and mine
Happy Valentine's!

Wonder



World of wonder
World of delight
This strange identity
Just can't be right

Wishing upon a star
Wondering where you are
Hope it's not very far
Wishing upon a star


Beautiful dreamer
Beautiful dream
wake up to reality
it's not all it seems

Candy Coma

Heart-shaped boxes
sugar filled treats
All these delicious
sweets to eat.

Chocolates for dinner
and breakfast too
plenty of choices
so what could I do

Cookies and Candies
my taste buds you're pleasin'
February is sweet
for so many reasons.

Happy Valentine's Day

A day of Hearts and Roses
Romantic dinners and red wine
A day of guilt and misery for
many people all the time.

Singles feel as if their lives are somehow less than
 if they aren't a part of the love fest.
Couples feel they must  show their love in a grand fashion.
Or somehow their love is just not the best.

Gifts are purchased
Expectations run high
People forget
some start to cry

Why do we force ourselves to
show what we feel?
When what we should do
is show it for real.

Love is a beautiful gift
found in many ways
 in all our lives.

To find someone to love
is indeed for which
we all strive.

Dinners, gifts, relationships
Friends, lovers, family
Valentines they all can be
Don't get stuck in
superficiality


A simple "I Love You"
 is more precious and expensive
than any dozen of roses.


After all, Love is the greatest gift of all.

A Love Filled Arrow


Cupid that mischievous fellow
Will get you with his bow and arrow
He’ll hit you no matter who you are
You can try to run but you won’t get far.


Cause Cupid that mischievous little fellow
With his little bow and arrow
Has the perfect aim.
He loves to capture people’s hearts
For his match-making games.


He’ll sneak behind you very softly
Then BANG! he’s hit you
Now you’re caught.
Your heart starts going flippety-flop.


So if you’re sitting sad and lonely
You had better watch it.
Cause you might just get hit by a little fellow
Cupid will get you with his bow and arrow.

Celebrate another year

It's my favorite day in February
The best day of the year
A wonderful day
so special to me
I'm so excited it's here.

It's my favorite day in February
A day to celebrate life
All smiles and cheers
No time for strife or fears
It's all about a good time tonight

It's my favorite day in February
Friends, Family and Food
Love and laughter no disaster
No time to sit and brood
It's all about the festive mood

It's my favorite day in February
I celebrate another year!
