“Every day is a journey,
and the journey itself is home”

Athens
Naked, with a lyre
Oh, there’s no fooling ya!

Delphi
Two, standing tall
The one, very small
Statues
Of different statures

Delphi
The world resting on one’s shoulders
Just get a good grip and try to hold it there

“I’m not a Twitterer, I’m not a twerker,
I’m not a Facebooker, I’m not nothing.
I’m old school.”
Michael Jordan
Old School
In the flashback
Neatly done haystacks
In the olden days
When life was laid back

“I’m not a Twitterer, I’m not a twerker,
I’m not a Facebooker, I’m not nothing.
I’m old school.”
Michael Jordan
Old School
What secrets lie
On the riverside
Maybe buried treasure
Or just people in leisure
Just a faded image
Painted for the vintage
A reminder
Of a desire
For the good old days

“I’m not a Twitterer, I’m not a twerker,
I’m not a Facebooker, I’m not nothing.
I’m old school.”
Michael Jordan
Old School
In my youth
When placing a call
There were these things you used
We called – phone booths
In the olden days
The secret lay
In talking to each other
Now, who bothers
When you can just, type
Oh, what a modern hype!

– Leo J. Burke
The Born One
On this day,
A little deary was born
Coming out tooting a horn
The cat said “well, we’ll wait and see!”
The dog retorted “is that something for me?”
The two mommies are in love
There is nothing more precious below or above
Now both aunties too, are happy
As long as they don’t have to change the nappy
Live long and prosper little Hon’
We know you were the long awaited one

“We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now”
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Row, Row, Row Your Boat
A boat filled with flowers
Was a little too crowded for the rowers
So instead, they rode a lawnmower
Before the grass grew any taller
