Contemplating paradox…
At the Fair
Big men hammers hurl
At the fair while on the stage
Little dancer girls

Contemplating life and celebration…
The Minnesota Scottish
Merchants and athletes
Artisans and dancers too
Gather to compete
Singers of some fame
The Minnesota Scottish
Fair and highland games
-gl-
Contemplating hardship and celebration…
May In Minnesota
Foul weather Scots dare
It’s May in Minnesota
And time for the fair

Contemplating pain and wonder…
Crack Of A Bat
The crack of a bat
Or the sound of small arms fire
Putting my ribs back

The things you think of in the middle of trauma… Sound familiar…?
Contemplating fear and courage…
The Way You Act
When panic is near
Courage is the way you act
NOT, feeling no fear

Have you been there? Tell us about it…
Contemplating fear and being alive…
Never More Alive
Adrenalin’s breath
Never more alive than now
Nearly scared to death

Share your story and maybe I can write a piece on that…
Contemplating honor and service…
Honored
Fighting for the weak
Honored to protect and serve
It is Police Week
-gl-
A tribute to all those that fight for others…
Please share…
Contemplating the mob…
The Brave Can
In all the clamor
Only the brave can muster
The will for manners

Have you seen this? Have you been there? Tell us about it…
Of sadness and sorrow…
Constant Now
Years later he grieves
Maybe not as constant now
Wind rustling the leaves

We all feel the pain. Let me know if that strikes a chord…
Contemplating affection…
Comforting
Still soft and downy
Her loyalty comforting
The pug snores softly
