It’s a bird

Post by creativesoul »

The dates blew off
The palm tree in the yard
The birds came and ate them in the sun

She was watching them

The father of her children
Held the grandson
Smiling

This was a vision
That she had 35 years ago
Happiness is very unusual
Back then it was Nigeria
Milatary coos and getting back to Italy fast with the kids

reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---

Toni has 44 years sober saw that she was waiting
That colorless visitorThe ticket out she knew she picked me to help her walk through that door to heavenly God But no one knew
She told everyone she was checking out and not to be afraid she was OK she asked if I would drive her to chemoI said I would love that I don’t know anything about that but I’ll do it

This was the 4th little old lady
That she loved until thier last day
They came from every different place
That she lived
She saw that little light around them
Suddenly she knew them forever

Some people just know
When things are happening
The ground might shake
Wind storms floods
Hurricanes
Rain
Water
Lava

But the birds are chirping so no earthquakes
They disappear and it gets real quiet
Everything you ever thought
Kind of goes away in an 🌏 quakes

The sun is out
The birds are on the lawn
Want to paint
But my engine is tuned to walking to the meeting
The things that save my life must not be neglected
It’s a dream that I was ever born
