Rain, gentle or heavy
When I'm alone and in thought,
Is pleasing and friendly,
Helps imagination be caught
By heaven knows what.
It really won't matter.
Just rain and my thought;
On mind's window nice patter.
Tapping the Keg of Feelings, Imagination and Inspiration. Posts to this blog first appeared as poems and thoughts in The Poet and the Pendulum,@2001,Lee Neubert Lindeman, Lighthouse Keeper Publishing, Cape Cod, MA. That collection was originally intended to be a kind of memoir for my four sons and their families. I've been surprised and grateful that some of my offerings have touched others. That positive feedback encourages my staying around.

Personal Profile
- Leanderthal, Lighthouse Keeper
- Eastham, Cape Cod, MA, United States
- Retired CEO of an industrial company,now a work/life navigation career counselor and coach, I have enjoyed writing since my English major days at Amherst College. I self-published "The Poet and the Pendulum" in 2001, sixty some poems, rhymes and doggerels of my own. I decided to publish a blog after reading respected journalists likening blogs to pamphlets and papers published during the founding days of this country. I feel strongly the need for alternatives to the so-called main stream media, generally acknowledged and considered to have political leanings. MSM also can be influenced by big money and/or the need to maintain access to politicians; both behaviors usually resulting in the pulling of punches,and often asscociated with taking a dive for money, attributes of greed and cowardice. I am registered to vote, with no political affiliation. In MA there is no Independent category. I support individuals who are recognized as authorities on important issues, and definitely not simply because they happen to be, for a time, in positions of authority.

This is nice as well - simple, refreshing, uplifting. Sometimes the simple ones are the hardest ones to capture. I always find haiku difficult for this reason.
