. Tulip tree after the rain.
.
Tulip tree refreshed by the raindrops
.
.
.
.
have you seen grass grow
falling raindrops make it so:
sun out, grass grows fast !
.
corner tulip tree
pink blooms filling with raindrops
branches heavy, droop
.
little children stomp
puddles from raindrops tempting
hear laughter stomp stomp
.

Waiting to be rescued
from myself !
.
It’s hard for me to believe
time has flown so quickly.
I want to be who I was before
old age and creaking bones
caught me unaware.
.
So,
I’m waiting to be rescued
from myself.
.
Wanting to live life as it was…
fast paced,
packed full of things to do.
(Note: “Fast paced” in
Downeast Maine, is not
the same as “big city”
fast paced !…
Jordan’s snack bar
before catching your kids or
grand kids latest local
ball game or play;
bean suppers on Saturday night,
shopping in Bangor…Portland
and Boston a really big deal:
an overnight stay is in the cards;
late nights are out after 8 PM. )
Waiting to be rescued
from myself…
.
The self that thinks
old age is just a number,
why should I have to
“adapt” to getting tired
experiencing “unplanned naps”,
less tolerance for change,
.
….
.
OMgoodness,
.
News Flash from local NBC news:
.
the dinosaurs flatulence
may have caused a greenhouse
effect that caused their demise !
Imagine that !
.
….
that was a news flash just now
on the local tv night time news.
Hot off the presses
as I sit here typing.
.
It makes me think,
.
I may need to be rescued
from myself.
.
I should never think after
a news flash like that.
It made me think of all the
aging baby boomers …
our numbers increasing
day by day.
Bran in our meals
causing increased flatulence…
OMgoodness….
Who would have thought ?
.
Is that what is causing
the greenhouse effect
the world is supposedly
experiencing these days ?
.
I may need to be rescued
from myself.
.
The Mayans have predicted
the end of the world
on December 21st this year.
We seniors need to cut down
on our all-bran and
“dried plums” right now !
.
I’ve been thinking.
.
I may need to be rescued
from myself.
