The sun is rising.
Reminding me of new life.
Life in this old world.
A loved book is a
book you've owned three
separate copies of.
I hate it when I
think of a great haiku and
then I forget it.
If you don't think there's
happiness on earth then you're
not kissing enough.
If eyes are the window
to the soul then I can see
the world through yours.
Don't worry so about
the future. It'll be here
before we know it.
We go 'round and 'round,
beginning to end, forward,
backward forever.
I'm not always sure
who my friends are, but I'm
certain of who they're not.
Some days I wake and
I can't believe this world
around me is for real.
If being old means
not liking Justin Bieber
then, cool, I'll take it.
"I couldn't love you
any better. I love you
just the way you are."
-Billy Joel
I fill full of love
looking at the beautiful
lines of your body.
I've never been
conservative. Not with my heart,
spirit or my goods.
I may be years older
than you, my child, but I'm
not always smarter.
There's nothing like a
papa's arms around you when
you need it the most.
"The older I grow
the more I listen to people
who don't talk much."
--Robert Orben
I like the guy riding
his bike in his underwear
and a tool belt.
Even the great
Babe Ruth, during his career, struck
out a time or two.
I liked the look of
the demitasse in the
mechanic's greasy hand.
This may be your last
chance. Find a lover and
make sweet, sweet love.
