Sad Ocean

The ocean is sad

It cries every day

Lapping for attention from the world

 

Like tears the ocean is salty

Unlimited water to the bluest depth

Sorrow at those depts

 

The ocean is not shallow

It will not judge you by your looks

It makes is choice by deeper inspection

 

Cry does the ocean blue

As it slowly turns away from us

Peaks a white hang still

 

Hush now waves

Care will be taken when we ride them

Cry no more, by wave good morning and good night

Flat Alberta

Last time I was in Alberta it was in the summer

Cool Breeze from the Mountains

Land as flat as you can see

Grass green as if feed pure water from fountains

Highways silent except for the occasional Hummer

 

It is not a plain land

Dare say there was much to do

When hole appeared dinosaur reared

They even built a museum too

No it is not bland

 

Been to the big cities

See what they can show

Edmonton Mall

Calgary go-carts

I’ve not yet seen in all

Choices made where to go

All by committee

 

Rain and Drizzle

Out my window I can see the rain fall

I can see across the river to the hill far away

Where the rain doesn’t fall

It drizzles

 

Drizzle is a poor man’s rain

Not really falling or refreshing the earth

But adding moisture to each breath you take

Muggy is drizzle and I will have it not

 

Rain cleans

Drizzle dampens

Drops refresh the soul, sleep in it to be reborn

Mist cakes your body like a mummy’s wrap

 

I will take rain any day

Over Drizzle

I’m not stupid

Sunny is much better

Uploading

Feeling down

Standing out

Not sure went communication is blanked

Don’t pout

Look Around

 

Data flows under line

Information is yours to have

Don’t be greedy

Share and connection halve

Its sharing time
