Life moves by so fast
We quickly lose perspective
Veering from our lane

Our lives
Constant battles
In states of confusion
Much ado about everything
For naught

Yes, I am common, and blend in with the crowd
Though at times, I can really dominate the scene
Sometimes I am quiet, and sometimes I am loud
But most times, I am somewhere, in between
Word of the Day – Dominate
FOWC with Fandango – Common

I caught him looking down at me
Face in a frown, not happy to be
Up in the sky, I could clearly see
Something was coming, no mystery
Where once it was blue, now it was gray
What happened to my nice, sunny day?
Who sent dark clouds, over this way?
I wish the nice weather was here to stay
All of a sudden, the clouds started to tumble
Off in the distance, I heard something rumble
I’m pretty sure I heard someone else mumble
It’s cloudy, my dear, with a chance of grumbles
Sure enough, there he was, still looking down
Furrowed eyebrows, face remained in a frown
Started to think, he looked more like a clown
Realized, in his rain, I could possibly drown!
With a wave of my hand, I bid him goodbye
Slammed the door shut, and let out a sigh
I didn’t want him to find me, though he did try
It was then, I noticed, he had started to cry…

We honor those, who fought the fight
On the battle fields, both day and night
Who fought for our liberties and our rights
But, never returned, to a future, bright
On Memorial Day, we honor our dead
Who gave their lives, where’er they tread
Where bravery stood, and never fled
So we could tuck, safely, into our beds
On this Memorial Day, and every day, remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for us, so that we may continue to live in freedom. May God always hold them in His loving hands. ❤
