Habits & Addictions

Habit addictions
Euphemized as habits
Have conquered the world;
In the beginning was alcohol
Then came tobacco, then obesity
Then the non-touch screens
And now the touch-screens
And each of them has changed
The history and behavior of humanity.

Times & Colors

Good times end or stop
And bad times end or stop
But no one can erase the shades
With which good times and bad times
Color our lives and our views of the world.

Joy & Moments

The most important thing
Anyone can teach children
Is to enjoy all the moments
That life offers;
Learning to enjoy the good
In spite of the bad
Improves our lives
And our defenses.

Care & Share

To care
Is to share.

Between & Life

Between possible and impossible
Lie our dreams
Between probable and improbable
Lie our lives
Between hope and faith
Lie our loves.

Hands & Fate

When I cannot reach my feet
Nor alone walk down the street
When my cataracts bring night
To a world that once was bright
When my ears no longer hear
And each day adds one more fear
When the years accumulate
And my friends succumb to fate
All I need to rise and shine
Is your hand entwined in mine.

LIfe & Is

Thrills are ephemeral
Suffering, prolonged
Pleasures, fleeting
Pain, enduring
Joy, sublime
Memories, indelible
Happiness, aspiration
Love, meaning
And work, living.
