Each day, I continue

To write
all my wrong

Love can be short
when you want,
to belong

Life can belittle, the chosen
who praise

Death is the twilight
of all
of our daze

My veins are forsaken
of all
of their ink

The color of all of my
verses
are pink

The penance is
thick
but the parchment
is thin

The dawning is dew
on the lien
of my chin

Trying to bite
on the wings
of a song

Giving you everything where I,
belong

You two can dispense with the "Mr." stuff and just call me by my first name...Marsh.

True as blue, that is a great X-ray.

So while at  the airport these two said "Why not" and quickly on the sly entered an empty security machine.Any where will do for some.

Speaking to the photo not the words. Love to you Richy. jo, another mother to another son.

Each verse could stand alone yanno~  
Your poetry is wise and wonderful and packed with heart and soul.

Richy, you are such a fine poet and I always enjoy your insight into
everyday life as we know it.

Very, very introspective, Richy. There are lessons to be learned withing the confines of this poem.
