No lover no grief

Pi Day Without Stephen Hawking
Pi Day
Without Stephen Hawking –
Is dismal –
Like pi
Without the decimals –
Or pie –
Without the filling

Running Poem R079
A life in three days –
That’s what I’ll try to convey –
Labour Day Weekend –
In an incomplete novel
For a mad writing contest

Skating Poem S054
Groundhog Day forecasts
Are right three times out of eight –
So swap the meanings –
Of what seeing their shadows
Mean for more accuracy

Running Poem R054
Visited more war
Memorials on my run
Than most will today –
On a special route I took
For this year’s Remembrance Day

One Stanza Poem O182
Remembering those who fought or died –
In the war from where –
My family and I had to flee –
And remembering those who fought or died –
In the wars for where –
My family and I could be free –
A sincere thank you from me

Big Lift Ferry Poem F181
From overcrowding –
Forced into the lower deck –
Like leaving Viet Nam –
Except it’s much nicer, free –
And Dartmouth ain’t that scary
