My Guardian Angel

Posted on June 12, 2014 by poemsandponderings

    It has been a while since I have posted anything, for a variety of reasons, not the least being, that my lap top crashed on me, and alas a replacement was recommended as being a fiscally responsible avenue … Continue reading →

Where Did My Little Girl Go?

Posted on August 16, 2013 by poemsandponderings

    Two years ago I posted this poem in honor of my daughter’s wedding. TWO YEARS? Are you kidding me? Now I’m starting to think that the title should be; “Where Does The Time Go?” Rachel and Gregg are … Continue reading →

When I’m With You

Posted on April 18, 2013 by poemsandponderings

     A rare poem from the “mushy” side. There is no way to explain how my mind works, (though it is currently on an extended hiatus) I don’t know where the inspiration for this one came from, perhaps a song on the radio, but the words … Continue reading →

The Limits Of Love

Posted on May 12, 2012 by poemsandponderings

     I am fully aware that Saturday is probably the slowest day of the week  for views at most blogs. I can understand that. Usually Saturdays are rather hectic, for a “day-off”  from our “regular” work routine, and a lot of time is not available to … Continue reading →

A Blessing For A Baby

Posted on March 1, 2012 by poemsandponderings

I love writing the so-called “Irish Blessing” there is something down-to-earth about them. Usually, they are but simple messages, that are surrounded and infiltrated by verbosity. Nonetheless, you can feel the “from the heart” tenor of the words. The title came as an after-thought, but it is a … Continue reading →

My Valentine

Posted on February 10, 2012 by poemsandponderings

     I wrote this the other day and had no inkling of where it was headed when I began.. I’ve said before, many times, that a phrase or a theme usually triggers my poems and this was no exception. It just started with a … Continue reading →

Through Love’s Eyes

Posted on November 30, 2011 by poemsandponderings

     I have stated many times over, that poemsandponderings was not your grandma’s poetry. Well apparently, I lied. For lately the words that form the sentences that form the poems have taken on a somewhat softer and gentler(read mushy) nature to them, similar I would say to old-fashioned (grandma’s)poetry. So … Continue reading →

Perception

Posted on November 15, 2011 by poemsandponderings

Perception She walks the dog along the beach, as the sun reflects the trees, orange, red and yellow, with still a touch of green, off of the mirrored surface, like the perfect movie scene. Solitude surrounds them, the birds, only … Continue reading →

A Drink With A Friend

Posted on October 5, 2011 by poemsandponderings

     As I said yesterday, friends and friendship will be the theme for this week. I also mentioned that it has been on my mind for the past couple of years, how friendships can just seem to fade. How friends can become strangers through complacency … Continue reading →
