End of year haiku..

Welcome the New Year
Let peace and love be our goals
It's still possible

Winds left broken trees;
tilted, uprooted, fallen
Sun floods forest floors

Skies break wide open
Stars leap from cold indigo
Reality bites

Fallen from a bluff,
a cottage now is kindling
Rains caused much sadness

Ease racial tensions;
no keeping score anymore
Unarmed can be tazed

Iraqi war toll
take responsibility
for torture, murder

Life is worth living
then brains can become quite ill,
Most joy slips away

Welcome the New Year
wipe the tears and blood away
Now is the right time

the new year is a new page...one we can write going forward...letting go the bumps and bruises that we got the last year...life is full of ups and downs and challenges....now is the time....

FROM THE WRITER OF DOWN THE EYRIE ROAD
Originally, when I began this blog, I was 64 and opened

with the following lyrics from the Beatles' song:

When I get older losing my hair,

Many years from now,

Will you still be sending me a valentine

Birthday greetings bottle of wine?

If I'd been out till quarter to three,

would you lock the door,

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four.

Now 67, I hope to blog till I am 74 or 104.

Thank you followers & friends

Checking in; it is July 2016 and life goes on.

Here it is 2018. This March I turn 71. It's time to revamp, weed out the worst and make a book of sorts containing the best of the blog. It consists of prose poetry and short stories; they are pieces of me that I have been able to share, with pleasure, with you...considering how energy often was channeled elsewhere, the blog has an average of 300 visitors monthly from around the world. Thank you for stopping by.
