A Remembrance: Mary Tyler Moore 

February 4, 2017 Carl Setzer

Awoke with a song,
Mary Tyler Moore’s theme.
Quirky, jaunty and cheerful,
With a tinge of sadness.
A bright point in my youth,
Faded into night.

Such is the way of things;
Joy blends with sorrow/
This complex dish,
Life.

Darkness descending
That living within our hearts
Often thrives at night

Life Balanced?

January 31, 2017 Carl Setzer1 Comment

Work morning ’til night
Efficiency’s tyranny
Our rest becomes lost 

Do you feel your work life is balanced with all the rest of what’s important?
