NAPKIN WORDS #49 2011 - Dedicated to Mike Prevor

1. AN EVERY TIME COVER UP
Life is filled with small accidents needing band-aids
of love!

2. UNREST
When a government fears the opinion of its people,
its people will become afraid of that very same
government.

It has happened to governments around the world
in the past.

It is happening to governments around the world
now.

You would think that, because of the events in
many countries in 2011, that governments of the
future will listen to their people.

My prediction is that many of the governments
that today are being overthrown, will have new
governments that begin to fear the opinion of its
people.

The cycle will continue as it always has and always
will.

The only difference will be that old friends will
become new enemies!

3. SMILES AND FEARS
I am the last of one, the passing of another.

I am time.

It is what I do to create new passing.

Passing is a constant of smiles and frowns.

You are the decider of your lip’s shape.

Not I, for I am but time passing!

4. FALSE FRONT
I would like it to be said that the only pretense I
had, was when I wore shoes that were hurting and
I pretended that they did not!

5. YOU ARE IT’S REASONING
As the years go by, a lotus is a reminder in the
waterway of your time.

That is why it is so beautiful!

6. THE WONDROUS SURPRISE OF IT
A child’s smile in New York City is so
special that it makes each adult become a
child again.

It is just that magic breath of New York time!

OF KINDNESS FALLING

There are four ways to give of
one’s self.

First, is something due.
Bad or good,
a debt must
be paid.

Second, an emotion so strong
it must struggle to
reply.

Third, obligations among
many hearts of family,
friends.

Last, is that softness when we
fall in love.
Offering all, willing to pay ever
higher prices.
Yet content when no bill is offered.
Nothing is paid except dreams occurring,
wishes requested.

Such are those times of
kindness falling.
