Thursday you've finally arrived
Work is over and I'm ready to imbibe

You've become my favorite day of week
Most of my jobs done and giving Saturday a wink

Late enough in the week to relax a little more
While Friday's shadow lurks closely under the door

Early enough to fantasize about Sunday
Yet still so far away from Monday

Pour me a glass, or two or three
Unplug my brain and help me let it be

Since I only have one more day of work
Will one more hour really hurt?

So sweet Thursday you may not be part of the weekend
But since the quarantine, it's upon you I've come to depend
Cheers to Thursday - the under rated day of the week
You’re sad but there’s no reason to be sad
Heart is throbbing
But you can’t tell nobody
As you have no reason to feel these things
Make others laugh
In hopes you’ll get that in return
Heart continues to ache
Why can’t y’all tell I’m hurting for reals

I can't afford getting ignored
What I wish already drowned
I can't watch myself alone
I want as we were before
I can't see you losing your interest
It's better let's follow the truth
I can't even accept the reality
It will became painfully deadliest forever

“The conflict at the moment,
Is you're literally,
One tweet away,
From the market being down,
5 per cent.”
My day routinely starts with a quick whip through the AFR, and this line caught my eye. Not my usual kinda post and by no means poetic, but there you go.

'As the impeachment movement picks up, Trump will counterpunch. He's shaping up as a master politician and markets don't like that.'

I don't know
If I'm just
Too afraid
To let you go
Because you're
Someone familiar
Or if
I truly can't
Let you go
Because I'm still
So very in love
With everything you are
But either way
You're breaking my heart
By not loving me back
By not wanting me
By leaving me so cold
And I never thought
That being in love
Would hurt so much

Wretched voice
Boxed so thin
Rubbed-raw noise
Sandpaper skin
Beaten crest
Lasts for years
Naked nest
November tears
The season’s stall
Before the laughs
The worst of all
The ugly path
A sun burned green
I waste away
While they all wait
For bright Friday.
It’s a metaphor, Brian

The Moon Shines Bright,

Throughout the night,

But everyone forgets the moonlight,

when the sun comes into sight,

The star blinks all throughout the night,

and hide away at the daylight.



The moon had a friend,

A naive girl with a heart of gold,

Use to look up to the big blue for days on end,

Throughout their friendship neither spoke,

The moon couldn't and girl didn't,

They had a mutual understanding,

Without chattering.



After a while the girl stopped looking up,

grown up and all wise,

The childlike wonder disappear from her eyes,

The moon had lost a friend,

To adulthood again.
This was my very first poem, thank you, to all of you for reading this, this poem is very close to my heart. ~ Ray

All it took was one push to cause me to fall...


But all it took was for me to fall for me to know that I could fly.

Monday
Oh how I dread you
Can you just go away for one more day

Tuesday
You could be anything or nothing at all
You're just Tuesday

Wednesday
**** DAY
I finally get to look forward to the weekend

Thursday
The day before Friday
Anything could happen, but it wouldn't count

Friday
The most annoying day because of Rebecca Black
But it means we have 2 days of no *******

Saturday
Thank you for no school
But sadly you go by too fast

Sunday
Ruined because you know tomorrow is Monday
The one day I remember to do my homework

She passed away.
Today.
And I just talked to her yesterday.
She was happy and smiling.
She was fighting; she was thriving.
Yet none of us knew that during the night,
it would be the end of her fight.
I came to school today
ready for another Thursday.
But life today took quite a swing,
and it really left me thinking.

Dedicated to Mrs. Lee LeRoy;
may you rest in peace.
You will never be forgotten.
One of my favorite teachers died of a heart attack in her sleep. I wasn't ready for the news; I had just talked and to her yesterday. She was so happy and healthy, I couldn't believe when I was told that she passed. I don't think I've ever seen teachers, and people over all, cry so much. I cried, too. I will miss her so much. At least she is in a better place right now. May Mrs. Lee LeRoy rest in peace.
