Old Wooden Lawn Chairs
They were together so many years.
Their old wooden lawn chairs next to each other,
Touching slightly at the arm rest,
Looking out at the world from the same angle,
Contemplating the parade of life unfolding.
Together so many years.
That view from the chairs so familiar,
Yet somehow always new.
It was their contented place,
Touching slightly at the arm rest.
So many years…
The lawn chairs supported them,
Directed their view,
Provided a sanctuary,
Touching slightly at the arm rest.
Oh, I cannot bear to take the chairs away.
I cannot bear to take them away.
Unexpected

The flowers are still here after we are gone.
Urine
The Romans washed their clothes with urine. It was actually a respected profession — people who washed clothes with urine.
Bootloader
Musk says humans are a bootloader for the age of the robot.
Nutritionist
I’ve been certified as a nutritionist. My specialties will be weight loss and/or better health.
If you are interested in my services as a nutritionist, you can reach me at hbarnard33@yahoo.com.
My only requirement is that you have a workstation or laptop capable of video conferences with either Google Meet or Microsoft Team/Skype, as that is my method for communicating with clients.
Mind
The mind has a mind of its own. Have you ever noticed how quickly it responds to everything WITHOUT your direction?
Processed Food
Move away from highly processed foods if you care for our health.
Roman Skillset
The Romans placed a lot of weight on rhetoric and oratory. The elite took pains to train their children in these skills.
I think a decent amount of Trump’s skill as a politician comes from his natural and innate ability as a public speaker. He speaks with deliberation and conviction, and his audience is captivated.
