saturday night and auction clad
to see the stuff that others had
weary souls on a lone, cold night
dreary souls in search of bright

and shiny things, things that bling
things that shine, things that sing

two dollars, four, who'll make it six
on worn-out strands of golden dreams?
six, now eight--who'll make it nine?
(i'd a bought yours, had I sold mine)

sold! to the man with the golden gleam
sold, to the man with the far-off dream--

the dream of that which might have been
kindled with the hope that it can happen again

thank you Earth Angel and The Lady (hmmm...sounds like the title of a made for TV movie), but, then I digress...

It is good to be back.  I've stepped in for a peek through the windows from time to time, enjoyed some nice reads by a lot of folks...just needed to regroup.

Appreciate your very kind comments and welcomes.

Excellent!!  Welcome Home!

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.
