Looking through the telescope
Everything looks so much closer
Nothing is beyond his ability to observe
So the only reason he stopped was because the police knocked

West (an acrostic poem)
Watching the sun make its escape as it sinks beneath the horizon
Everything becomes more magical in that twilight moment
Snippets and whispers of other realms peek from beyond the veil
That opportunity sets as darkness brings down the curtain
Fossil (an acrostic poem)
Feeling ancient, well beyond his years
Oliver groaned, stretched, and popped a few vertebrae back in place
So many stairs to climb to get to his bed made him shake his head
So heavy limbs, like they were made of stone
It made him want to just lay down here for all of eternity
Laughing, he thought he now knew how the dinosaurs felt

That’ll Fix Anything (a 50 word story)
The phone was broken, but he was sick of buying new ones. He grabbed his screwdriver and contemplated how to attack the problem. It was probably beyond his ability, but he was damn good with a screwdriver. After drinking three of them it wasn’t fixed, but he didn’t care anymore.

Drive (an acrostic poem)
Determined to get one more thing done
Rachel ignored the warning signs and barreled on
If she had just paid more attention
Viewing the road ahead enabled her to achieve above and beyond
Engine light went unnoticed until its prophecy came true

Rebecca (an acrostic poem)
Really can’t believe you said “I do”
Even though it was twenty-three years ago
Because I still hear the echoes of those words every day
Each touch and smile deepen my bond to you
Could never imagine not taking this journey with you
Counting myself blessed beyond any measure
Always and forever yours.
