S*it

Found out my boss "retired" today. Funny thing is last week he was planning out our work for the next few weeks and he was heavily involved, and now he is gone. There is talk that he was given a decision and chose retirement. I will find out more later.


Seriosly pissed off. This man helped more through my divorce than my own family and never, never, looked down on me for the divorce even though it goes against his personal religious beliefs.

I am going to have many beers now. later.

Something I will post here and not on Facebook just because it goes against everything I believe in, yet the amount of people in my life that say I need this kind of relationship is staggering.


FWB

You arrived late
but I do not care.

You are wearing a long jacket.

With nothing underneath.

We don't even say hello.

We just get right down to business.

We go all night and into the morning.

We wake at noon.

Hungry.

You leave.

I stay.

I hate it when you leave.

But we tried the other option before.

We are just friends with benefits
and nothing more.

Second post

This is weird no immediate comments. You have to wait. I guess that is how my life should be right now. Not searching for the immediate gratification, but wait for the eventual and more gratifying long term response. I have still given up on all chance for a relationship past friendship with a woman, and I am still waiting to see if that is indeed my path.

I feel better making this choice. I don't feel as though I am giving up. I just feel as I am taking what is being given (or not given) to me.

new blog

This is my latest poem (also on Facebook). New to this Blogging thing so please bear with.
I have been working on this for some time, and a recent conversation with a dear friend inspired me to finish and post. Did not mean for so many people to focus on death or dying, but many were brought back to a better time in their life and maybe a few of their days were brightened.

Anyways, Enjoy and comment please!

This place is comfortable to me.
Like an old book that has lost it’s cover
And it’s spine bent in too many places.

On top of this ledge, I see hills that go on forever.
The landscape untouched by Man in the name of Progress.

The river runs wild and unchecked and unpolluted.

I see the area where my family has stayed for generations
And will stay for many more with the grace of God.


My children play with their children,
And laughter fills the Autumn air.

It will get cold soon.
Supper needs to be prepared.

I will sit with my children.
My grand children will sit at my feet
And listen to the stories of the old days and ways.
Until they finally drift off to sleep.

I will join them soon after.

In the morning I will rise to see them off.
Except for the youngest who is staying to take over things.

For this I am Happy.

There are far too few of these scenes left in the world.
