Where have I been?

Well, with a new baby (check out my wife's blog) and work (at home and at work), March passed like a beans through the digestive tract. Now we are well on the way through April. Where does time go?

The great thing about April is that I have a new Bamboo Tablet for my laptop. Now I can actually add a little hand drawn art to this blog. Woo hoo! In the meantime, while I work on a few digital art pieces, allow me to entertain you with some poetry.

I wrote this poetry as a young lieutentant at the end of the last century and the beginning of this one. Let's start with some haiku...

Fortune cookie say
Merry times ahead. Seek love
In a sugar shell?

Drunk tank, think tank, fish
Live in a tank, but not here
Gunner! Sabot! Tank!

Waves roll on the wind
I live beneath a sea
I’ve never seen the sun

Melody of death
Bass and crescendo pummel
Killing silence

A flower unfolds its petals
Color flows like blood
My mind is awoke

Haze hides the mountain
Mist shrouds the valley floor
Where is enlightenment

I loved once before
Countless battlefields of yore
I waged love as war

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Deuces!
