Sweet Sixteen By Franklin Price 12/31/2016 Sweet sixteen is moving on; tonight will be its last. Tomorrow is another year, today will be the past. A hundred years ago tonight, World War One was on at will. Horses drawing caissons on mostly dirt roads still Radios were barely blaring, no television yet, No computers in our lives, of course no internet. Operator assisted telephones,...

We are young Love to sing the red maple’s sorrow Love to ask why people are so busy Love teasing merchants as they crazily whooped Sometimes we see sparrow’s head overturned We will laugh all day long Life is dancing with the cloud and moon Poetry is the vintage Drunk together with sunset The days passed, nonsense with reveries The old prophet read...

How is it going? I hope life is still as flowing because it isn't right now. At fourteen, you only get faults and fouls. Will you look back at me today and laugh in a despising way? What will you do, who will you meet? Are you still willing to help the beggars on the street? Is your heart full of passion or...

You were seventeen I was fifteen There were two Then there was one The One who is left Mom immersed in what-ifs Sits at the kitchen counter Death supersedes life My here and now disappears Into your not-to-be future Dad in pained denial Runs another thousand miles Returns with his pretender Found in Butte Montana Who stays awhile Every night Alone Insulated by bedroom walls The pain -- rebuffed all day Roils...

Sweet Sixteen Time to decide Make up your mind No time to ponder The end is coming nearer Graduation creeps closer My time is almost over The years pass like days They pass and fade The future becomes bolder No way to escape Stuck to the path like tape So many questions I want to ask The future like a light in the eye I can’t look away Must stare...
