Tonight

If tonight is all you have

What would you want

To know

To give

To try

Every moment can be slow

Or could fly

So take the moment

To prepare the answer

For in the life we are living

Nothing is ever a given

Obnoxious

I was a little wild

In my youth

The memories have

I am glad

I made it through

To see the days

Of a finer wisdom

Upon my life

So I am grateful

To be here

And everyday too

Piquant Nights

The evening

Was blue

From the start

Easy as it came

In from the western shores

So I stood

Taking in the waves

On the shore

Seeing the city line

Over the water lines

These piquant nights

Are the most

Enticing

I have ever seen
