We have calcium in our bones,

iron in our veins,

carbon in our souls,

and nitrogen in our brains.

93 percent stardust,

with souls made of flames,

we are all just stars,

that have people names.

when I am gone,

someone,

somewhere,

picks my soul up

off these pages

and thinks,

“I would have loved her.”

I cannot undo

what I have done;

I can’t un-sing

a song that’s sung.

And the saddest thing

about my regret-

I can’t forgive me

and you can’t forget.

Knowing the heart know that “they don’t even care”

Treatment of friendship, I swear can’t compare

And wanted to share things, but see it’s not in the air

————

I swear see the shot? Then catch it if it’s fair

You’ll regret another making the attempt, I swear

Vice versa. Just hope we can connect. Be a pair.

Water weekly, repot yearly, and when to propagate?

Give it lots of sun and don’t let it freeze

This keeps it healthy and gives you a green mate

Spray, with my neem to kill off gnats and bugs

You can go for veggies, fruit, trees, or anything that will blossom

Drink at home, drink at parties, drink in a game

Just because there’s family history doesn’t mean you’re stuck

Maybe one day the craving might become tame

However, today, tomorrow this week this month you’re out of luck

Have a favorite, wine, beer, whiskey? Oh, everything.

Well, that certainly sounds healthy

Let’s try some water before you try anything

Pick a sport, any sport, individual or team

You’ll learn to work out or so it’ll seem

Running and jumping and moving your arms

Eventually, you’ll be swept up by its charms

But once you leave school, it’s much harder

It’s enough to have you wish you were a carder

Now that you’re 26 it’s time to restart

The couch, table chairs, TV, vanity, toilet, hanging

My to do list is never ending and always haranguing

Get the dishwasher replaced only to learn

The plumbing and piping and water continues to churn

Should the next project be the lights?

I’m hoping this won’t keep me up nights

Going back to renting, would suck

Too bad I don’t have a friend with a truck
