mostly often
I find myself thinking
is this what I have been reduced to
I had such grand designs for my life
that did not include sitting in front of a laptop
in an otherwise darkened room
thinking that I am a writer
just because I can string some words together
and call it poetry

good morning,

right now I am feeling that I am doing little more than just going through the motions of it all. I hate feeling like this, but I know that this will pass and I will be able to get on with whatever it is that life has in store for me. I never thought that my life would have taken some of the turns that it had, but if we knew what was tom happen to use, then that would be taking some of the fun out of life, but even then, I guess the only thing that I can do is to just keep on doing all that I am doing, knowing that tomorrow is another day. I hope so, as I live and breathe. It is all good. I pray that you are well and that I will be hearing from you soon.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

waiting for the big mystic to arrive
to grant me some new for of wisdom
insight
some other way of saying
what is already know
vainly searching
for that which has already found us

good morning,

right now it is all good. I have the day off tomorrow and any day off is always a good day. the question is, what am I going to do with myself. there is so much to do and so little tine.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

questions
answer more questions
until the whole point 
of being alive
becomes little more
than academic 
and the point of it all
simply gets lost.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

across a page

So it goes. Press on regardless.

its at times like this 
when I have reached 
the bottom of the tank
that I keep forgetting
that I am not 25 
anymore
its a shame
that we have to get old

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

there are times
when I find myself thinking
how nice it would be 
just to be able 
to say what it is
that I am thinking
all of the time
yet if I did that
it would be a case of 
being jobless
homeless
or dead

good morning,

there are times when saying just enough is the right amount that needs to be said.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

justice and mercy
nice words
but it just seems
that when  it comes to
actually receiving 
such things
it is all a question
of what you can
afford 

good morning,

now, this is just some thinking out, but there are times when I wonder how much of what I am writing is actually being read, but even if it wasn't being read and I think that I would still need to be writing, because it has been one of the few things in my life that I have been told that I was ever any good at, and there are times when I have my doubts about that. 
now that I am off for the next two days, of course, it is going to rain. it would not work out any other way.

So it goes. Press on regardless.


Faithfully Yours,

the years' turn
as they always do
night following day
spring following winter
until we realize
that there just might be more 
years behind us than ahead of us
not that I am planning on leaving
any time soon
but I still wonder
why the years slip away
much to quickly

good morning,

there are times, even with the best of intentions, there are just times, due to circumstances beyond my control, that my writing time or at least this part of my writing time gets cut short, but this is better than doing nothing at all. it is always good because God is still in control.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

sometimes
as tired as I am
or as tired as I could be
there is always enough time
to throw a few words together
So it goes. Press on regardless.

good morning,

the next few days leading up to Thanksgiving are going to be interesting, to say the least. I hope that I make it. It's all good. 

So it goes. Press on regardless.

no matter how long I keep doing this,
it still amazes me how frustrated I become
with using technology
it is at times like this,
that I still think that a goose quill
and a bottle of India ink 
just might be the best alternative.
It's just a thought.

good morning,

there are times when I don't give much thought to technology, but there are times when it acts up and does not really cooperate with me and if I did not know any better, I would swear that all of this had a mind of its own. in the end, it is all good, because I am finding myself getting a little too frustrated with all of this. I pray that you are well and that I will be hearing from you soon. it is still good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

quiet can be good
quiet can be very good
but there is such a thing 
as being to quiet
the difference is
to know the difference.

good morning,

at the moment it is all good, but as with almost everything else in my life, it seems that it is all subject to change without notice. So I really should not be surprised, but at the moment, all that I can do right now is top just try and enjoy the next couple of days, because the next couple of weeks, things are going to get just a little bit crazy at work. What else can I do, but it is all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

Sunday November 3, 2019    

it seems,
that the older that I get,
the faster the years go,
and that I am not to far 
from collecting my social security
my pension
and whatever else will be coming my way
assuming that I live that long
not that I am planning on going anywhere
anytime soon,
but there are just some things that are simply out of our control.

Good morning,

After all of this time, it is still true, that the first day back to work is always the toughest. now the long wait for my next round of vacation weeks. The first one, I hope, will be Easter week, but that is not until April. I see a personal day between now and then.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee
