Rubber Ducky Poetry Hour

Reflecting upon the past
I don't mean yesterday
Or even a week ago
Lets talk a decade or two
When we were so young
Most assuredly dumb
And thought we knew everything
I ponder how life turned out
I never saw this coming
And I wonder if my friends of old
Ever feel the same as me
Now that I am older
I don't feel any wiser
To be true
I feel dumber then a box of rocks
Mayhaps that is true wisdom
To know you are ever learning
I find myself comparing new friends
With old friends
Not that one is better then the other
But I miss my friends of old
And our silly stupid antics
I wonder if I put a call out
A call for a reunion
If it would come to pass
Alas we are all grown up now
Or at least what passes for grown up
With never any time to spare
So here I sit
Wistfully daydreaming

The toilet
A perfect place for deep thoughts
Imagine here I sit
On the porcelain throne
Writing this little diddy
For your entertainment
What could be going through my mind
To possess me to write a poem
While on the toilet
Words...
Just words
To put in some order
To hopefully make sense
To someone other then me
Alas my time on the toilet is at an end
Time to wipe my ass
And get on with my day

Is it possible?
To love someone too much?
It frightens me sometimes
As I dream at night
Nightmares overtake my mind
Terrifying images
Of losing you
Nothing simple
Like losing you to another woman
More like something horrific
Something unreal
Almost right out of a movie
Even silly in some ways
You protecting me from zombies
Or some such
And thus you get eaten for your efforts
I think my mind is a terrible place to be
Lucky for you
You are in reality
Where there aren't any zombies

A part of my heart
A part of my soul
That is who you are to me
Good day or Bad day
Always a part of me

No matter the arguments
No matter the differences of opinions
It just helps us grow stronger
And more confident
In our love for one another

Our silliness
Our affection
Our seriousness
Makes us who we are
Always a part of each other

Our tears
Our upsets
The hugs and comforts
Show that we are here for the long haul
Always a part of each other

Together today
Together tomorrow
Together forever?
One never knows
One day at a time is good enough for me.

Cough cough cough
It's summer
Cough cough cough
And here I am sicker than a dog
Cough cough cough
Already cracked one rib
Cough cough cough
On the way to another
Sniffle and sneeze
Where did that phrase come from?
Sneeze and sniffle
Sicker than a dog?
Cough cough cough
Most dogs are pretty healthy
Cough cough cough
I swear I cough or sneeze one more time
Cough sneeze cough
I am going to scream bloody murder
Sneeze cough sneeze
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Some people come
Some people go
Some people stay
Some people should be kicked to the curb

Toxicity dripping from every pore
Radioactive like a nuclear bomb
Melting your mind, body, and soul
As if you got hit by a holocaust

Why can't you say goodbye?
Why do you keep them in your life?
You know they are trouble
Like a dead man walking through your life

Take a deep breath
Let it out slowly
Love yourself truly
And let them go

Keep the good
Let go of the bad
Love thyself enough
To not torture yourself

Here I kneel
Before all the Gods and Goddesses that be
From my lips to their ears
I pray and ask for blessings this day

For good health
Deep meaningful love
An open mind
An ever expanding perception

Bless my friends
Bless my family
And most of all
Bless those who speak ill against me

Thank you my Lords and Ladies
For giving me the sight
To see the magic surrounding me everyday
Thank you Gracious Ones for you love and blessings

I go forth from here
To share your love
To share your magic
With all who are willing to listen and learn.
