old car
rusted
keeps on running

57 Chevy
rust all over
Sunday joyride

broken windshield wiper
hole in the rusted floorboard
dad's old jeep is now mine!

65 Chevy Impala
blue with a few rust spots
Mom's dream car

clean laundry
the old jeans
are softer

her favorite blue jeans
hug the curves of
her hour glass figure

Sunday afternoon
in my favorite pair of blue jeans
doing nothing

favorite holey jeans
I certainly can't wear
on Sundays

the stain on the table
offers you a seat
everyone is welcome
to Sunday dinner

the chipped plate
from great-grandpa's mantle
on my mantle

ancient book
answers!
YES!

dusty Bible
opens easily
to my favorite verse

her piano in my house
the keys worn by
her hands

grandmother's
record player
always skipping

another year goes by
without her by my side
grandmother's tombstone fades

old tin watering can
sunflower spout long gone
passed down from grandma

broken heart
mixed feelings
burning the letter

how can I resist
your first attempt?
burnt cookies

date night
red wine
aged to perfection

years in the cellar
dust on the bottle
sophisticated red wine

unwanted buzz
from the guitar strings
the song has attitude

the cougher
smokes
to a tune

a knock
at the door . . .
3 men in uniform arrive

Old Glory
watching her fly
tattered by the wind

a tree house
fits where the lightening split
the old oak tree

memories
laughing
friends since 5th grade

the white blanket
an impression left
on the ground

bed pillow
molded to me
sweet dreams

the playoffs are here
I can't change my socks
feet stink for days

every time I play
every golf ball I hit
my one and only lucky hat

my 100th swing
I finally found
my sweet spot

my knees are weak
my back aches
one more race
