Learning Poems
Ages of Acclaim
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
I plan to discover more works of the great masters,
Like the rich green meadow find of bright red asters!
That is my New Year's resolution, a pledge to myself-
To enjoy and benefit from history's vast store of wealth;
And the glories of yesteryear lie waiting upon the shelf.

Slipping through the tightest of grips;
Youth kisses sweet time goodbye
With soft, selfish lips.

Lessons Yet To Learn
by Ken Ripley
I grasp for thoughts that others bid me hold,
And eagerly attend my lessons well.
But though I strive, and in the end excel,
What have I learned except what I’ve been told?
And all the words of wisdom spun with gold
Avail me not, for though they weave their spell,
Their voices dim. In turn, I bid farewell
To youthful past and rapidly grow old!
Where stands youth from old men facing death?
I search my lessons vainly for such scope,

by Rikske Kessner
In fragments, I find you,
piece by piece,
each shard a story,
a glimpse through the cracks.
Moments drift,
unanchored,
and I catch only slivers,
glints of who you are.

by Grace Frost
365 days we are celebrating you,
Life redefined in 2 pink lines,

Impatience is a family trait, 12/09/21,

Fatigued but morning comes again,
