I play the trumpet and am a music educator. I've always wanted to write, so this is an attempt at cracking open that door.

Crunchy Work

Time crunch? I’ll get work done.

Nestle Crunch? I’ll make short work.

Crunchy work is cool.

Improvisation

Improvisation-

Language, lines, melody, swing...

Creativity.

The Cold Lion

He was there, really just as a joke.

The plastic lion toy in the fridge.

His purpose?

To scare my wife.

It was a ridiculous thing;

Entirely juvenile and sophomoric…

And that’s exactly why I loved it!

Just a chance to be a big kid.

It didn’t work, but it was fun-

Fun to make her laugh

When things have been so serious of late.

We needed that. We need more cold lions.
