Important Insignificance
The fox enveigled the cheese from the raven, The child wheedles the cookies from parent, The dog raises his puppy eyes and melts your heart.
The birds twitter and flutter coaxing attention, The flower shyly moves its petals to receive Its caresses from the sun’s rays: nutrition!
The man wads his wallet to empress, While the woman wears her war paint as not to depress; The elderly lament their youth, and try to cajole
Their kin into longer and more frequent visits. While the individual struggles to beguile themselves Into believing they’re valued more than they are!
Ironically, they lack the vision to see their importance, That drives jealousy in others in constant Turmoil with themselves, for those lack your presence!

Nothing lasts forever except time, Time that rhymes with grime, Grime that distorts our beauty, Beauty that’s transient, never lasts in bevy Bevy of buzzing bees whose sting Sting is deadlier than any bombing, Bombing of others to assert power, Power that leads to atrocities of murder.

Symphony of Summer
Scintillating summer days are upon us, Here to stay for a season of togetherness When play in the yard, park, are on display, When age, gender, race hold no sway
For play is the Orchestra of life That shimmers against strife, Children play, adults converse, Elderly lean on each other creating a verse
Of poetic flow ringing in harmony Lest summer ends without happy Peaceful play parading for all To showcase the rhythm that’ll call
Everyone to emulate, for summer Is transient, and it’s joyful heralder Will hibernate, than wake to its Musical vibes drowning out the pits.

Frozen Frame
In a perfect sphere, where, in the snow Falls in perfect harmony, gathering family Feasting, playing, with nothing contrary, Only fun in the peaceful snowy glow.
The scene is set, The people prepped, The table bent, The children are a heavenly send.
The frozen frame is icy, Covered in white powder whose Calm settles into old bones, Where memory is alive, but dicey!
For the child, it’s the here and now That matters, while all else Is icing on a cake, where the candle will blow, And family is always best when many are less
And the anticipation of guessing What’s in the box is filled with laughter As outrageous ideas are a pleasing Game that ends chortling giggler.
The frame is never lame, It set the bar very high for following Years, as its innocence came With its childhood’s naive framing.
