~Day 2 of the 03 days 03 quotes challenge. I chose this quote cause I just began reading the book The Tike Keeper by Mitch Albom. I read The five people you meet in Heaven a few years back, and really enjoyed it! Anyway, back to the challenge. Rules are:
1. Share three quotes on three days in a row, one on each day.
2. Nominate three bloggers on each day.

Oh no, I`m late!
Oh well, I`m dead.
No need to pull out the
hair on my head.
If I was meant to be there on time,
I would have been, so no need to fret,
for what ever will be,
will be.
My Nominees for Day 02:
Forest of Desolation
the T of tree
Happy Birthday to me lol
Poet Robert Okaji Reads Rain Forest Bridge
good poem
Rain Forest Bridge
To cross
you must first
trust the strands
to hold.
The second tentative
step precedes
the next,
each successive one
gaining strength:
here to
there, now
to then, a summoning of
entreaties
within
one’s faith.
Vapor meets cooler air,
forming droplets,
clouding the far side.
I have feared endings
and the strictures of the unseen,
but here
in this vast
swaying,
I know
one line
bisects the void.
Paradise
nothing to say about this that is not said in the poem
Forget the clear blue sky
forget the golden shore
forget the secrete pathways
that others walked before
forget the drinks in coconuts
that exploit the passing trade
you go in search of paradise
in the wrong place i’m afraid
Forget the packaged desert islands
with a culture oh so fake
forget the holiday hot spots
that were designed to take
forget mind numbing tours
with nothing new to find
my friend I tell you paradise
is just a state of mind
Some find it in a crowed room
some find it on there own
some find it in a sacred place
where they go to atone
some find it by a babbling brook
or a car festooned with chrome
but some will tell you paradise
is to simply have a home

What is it
Tamara told me the answer to this puzzle (her answer at least) – what do you think it is?
What is it
That makes lovers whisper silly words all through the night.
What is it
That makes the painter rush home to paint the girl he met.
What is it
That makes the poet forget his dinner under the rain of words.
What is it
That makes the baby find her mother’s breasts while sleeping.
What is it
That makes that tough boy smile when he recalls his first kiss .
What is it
That makes my lover run into the night when I’m gone asleep .
Stumbling Out the Gates
yes we should all live like we are in love – in love with the world, you can see it glow
On the day
I declared to the world
that I will be living through my heart
instead of through my head, I
went for a jog, with Lucy, in the rain
made a dutch baby rise
drank too much coffee
cleaned the kitchen
did some laundry
watched the rain
said “I am love I am love” over and over again silently
had an argument with my wife
cried a little
ego-ed a lot
came to a better understanding
made a grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough for the kids
made grilled tuna for the grownups
wanted the grill cheese more
watched the rain
cleaned the kitchen
left the house
sat with my parents and really listened
watched drunk history with them on their tablets while the kids played a game on their computer in the other room
told the kids to get off the computer
then we all watched video montages…
