Dead calm...

Not a waft of wind, Not a current in the sea, Not a way to move, Just drifting you & me… Sail unfurled in case, Some wisp of wind, Gives us a bit of pace, Feeling without movement, Both of us quite chagrined… An island off the port bow, Far away is it for right now, We both sit on the forward prow, Praying for a breeze so through the swells we may plow…

Land Ho!

Hey, who you callin' Ho Mister?
If I had a paddle I'd use it on you!
Oh, you'd like that wouldn't you
You....drifter
Hey how's about you and me
Just relax a bit and enjoy the calm

There's nothing worse than a dead calm, whether on the sea, or in life. I can feel your concern and your well-chosen words.

New Poetry by Ed Matlack

My many years with Authors Den will come to a close in May, thank you to all that has reviewed of me, I hope you all continue on to your own end...

Most likely my END or maybe NOT!

Yep, it''s that time of the year again, break out the credit card...

Merry Christmas...

We all got em''...

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?

...NEAT...
