Create a holding place of still, to remember not, how short it is, or how much has been wasted dredging up this hill, but rather how much is to go, how much to touch and know, its not a whole, but I beg please... Don’t take your ball and run away, come play with me for the rest of my day. I know the place we are is because of where we have been, but this life goes by so fast not knowing if I can find you the next I’m in. I need to know I can complete what was missed, that which was a portion of what should have been in this. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

"Don’t take your ball and run away, come play with me for the rest of my day." That's the spirit! Tell them they can run but they can't hide!!! *GRINN* |

nodding you manage to be poetically matter-o-fact here...a new favorite from you, and did I ever tell you how much I admire your strength? (make a muscle for me baby...)   |

Susan, "I know the place we are is because of where we have been, but this life goes by so fast not knowing if I can find you the next I’m in. I need to know I can complete what was missed, that which was a portion of what should have been in this. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" Love this poem! miscellanea |

as I told Donna.. I really didn't expect anyone to understand this, as it is too personal and abstract (something that was not an accident)...but I underestimate my friends here, and I am very glad I have. Thank you  "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
