A bird in the hand
must escape
or its goose
will be cooked.
******
He who laughs last
laughs alone.
Everyone else got the joke
and long ago went home.
*****
Beauty is in
the eye of your dog
who knows very well
where his next meal
is coming from.
*****
Where there’s a will,
there’s a bar of chocolate
and a treadmill.
*****
A stitch in time
holds that moment steady
between the tick and tock,
the in-breath and the out,
the now and then.
*****
A rolling stone tells me
of distances yet to be traveled
before I gather moss.
*****
I still miss our little Brandy.
