Blogger still seems a nightmare of antiquated controls. But with no place else to post and the paper filled up, here a few recent scribblings:

Dixie Downs
Upon the Downs of Utah's Dixie
Horses ran the quarter mile
A few remain, most out of town
But hoof-prints are still around
Horsefly came by but yesterday
Swatted hard it went away
Horses make a better bite
I rode a horse full gallop once
His choice not mine
Lucky to have stayed on at all
And rode him back to his corral
Names and memories remain
To remind us of what was and is

Mud
Red mud today along the Wash
A slippery slope there was
Care was needed and was taken
Hips replace but not the hours lost
And what a day it is
The storm last night
Was bright with lightning
Roared with thunder and with rain
All that water now comes streaming
Down the creek at Halfway Wash
The waterfall a small Niagara
A lovely day and this I'll miss
St George I now am leaving

New Snow
On Signal Peak
In the mountains
Of Pine Valley
New snow has fallen
Winter lingers there
Though here it gets
Much warmer
Another day
I stay here
But time it is
To leave here
And remember
What I've
Seen here

The Bear Paw Cafe
But now I'm thinking
My back its aching
From the cleaning
Of the house that
I'd been renting
I'll stay another day or so
In the City of St George
This morning I found my way
To the counter of Bear Paw's Cafe
Advised by Bill a year ago
That its food was of the best
And now before me sits
Big Blueberry Pancakes
Bacon and Butter and
Enough syrup for to cover it
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
