A group of poems.
By Jason Appleton
Senses For the environment
The breeze whispering in my ear
The deceased yellow grass
Crunchy ripe peaches on the tree
The splinters burning in my hand.
Ode To Headphone Guy
how a mountain
with a waterfall running into a pink lake
could hit you with a spinning hat.
Your amazing headphones
your red face
and yellow eyes
Shine just like your chainsaw
Elegy to my Dog Max
He lived a short life
Only lived for 1 year
I just want to see him one last time.
The way he did things
in his own way
He was like no ordinary dog
did anything he wanted.
Everything's okay know I've learned
dogs and cars don't go together
I should pay more attention to my next dog
I'd do anything to see him on last time
Life Is Like A Castle
there are many mysteries to life
and you never know whats next
maybe something you like maybe not
There will always be a secret
to the hardest things in life
there are secret doors
you never knew about.
What I did for the weekend
the tough as nails
metal foundry
in the blank garage.
When i was 6 years old
Jack in the box
Adventuring outside.
Sandwiches for lunch.
Oliver my neighbor’s dog always came running into our yard.
Never taking a break.
Apple juice before my dad went to work.
Peaches were the most amazing fruit.
Pokémon was what I did for time to go by.
Loved Blue’s Clues.
Everyone though I loved apples.
Tortoise for a pet was the worst choice.
Oranges I absolutely hated.
Nine was my bedtime.
30 years later in life
Jumping out of planes
Achievements
Software Engineer
Outstanding family
Next generation
Amazing office
People ask for help
People ask too many questions
Living in Texas
Everlasting amusement
Time means a lot
Overworking
Never making a mistake
Band
The trombones slid moving fast
The clarinets high sound
The saxophones perfect pitch
The french horns always on time
The trumpets perfect notes.
