The Last Bits
The last bits on the plate, the tastiest remnants of a fine meal, Song coming to an end, passed the solo, final chords, let them resonate, sounds so sweet, Snippets of that last dream, as the images and feelings slip into the ether, Night gives way to the dawn of a new day, light pours …
My People
I’ve felt it pretty well all my life: a connection to those around me. It must be the same for others, I often ponder…after all, we humans are social creatures. Time and circumstance lay the foundation, fruitful soil, allow bonds to form — not always, but frequently enough — something more than shared experience, Common …
Arrived
Sometimes it’s an attitude, sometimes it’s a physical destination. Sometimes it’s an acceptance, sometimes a long sought-after goal. Regardless, you’ll know when you get there.

Thick
Man I gotta say it was thick the other day. Thick in the morning traffic, thick in the evening traffic, thick in between at work with one thing after another, this and that and the other thing, Thick thick thick, When you’re in the thick of it, double down on you, the things you know, …
Measure Twice, Cut Once
An old adage a friend of mine repeated to me when he was a journeyman carpenter a long while back: “Measure twice, cut once.” It means when cutting boards while making something, best to measure where you are supposed to cut twice before actually making the cut, since you really can’t take the cut back …
Nine Minutes
It takes about nine minutes for the coffee to brew. From the time you push the button ON, and the water starts to heat, nine minutes. In those nine minutes the crackle of the heated water through the tube, the fragrance of fresh coffee wafts down the hall, that first sip just moments away. Nine …
