An Ode To My Wife
I am but a man. Yet, because of you, I am also more than that. You make moments like these ever more meaningful, ever more dear to my heart, and I hope you know that you’re loved more than these flimsy words could ever portray. I was struck by this flower, it reminded me of […]

A Man and His Dog
As we breathe in, and out, He is there. When we smile or laugh or cry, He is there. As the sun sets, And world fades into the darkest of nights, He is there. When the bones ache, And the memories have started to fade, In your heart, He will always, be there. – M […]

The Smile of a Flower
The purple flower smiled up at me. Looking down at the flower I knew it had only recently bloomed into existence, so new to life. I held its delicate petal with a few of my callused fingers, so gentle, so soft and welcoming to the touch. The universe creates such beauty to be observed, to […]

Down By the River
Down By the River Some of the most beautiful moments of my life have been with my dog, down by the river. The lush green grass grown so high. The trees would sing their song to us, as we sat with each other. Doing nothing that would be worthy of praise, or notoriety. Just sitting. […]
