Thanks Juju,

This is one that no one read for several days, so I took it down.

Here it is, just for youse.

"Bones is older now,
but still selling his body.

He’s been to school,
he’s a sought after engineer.

Folks from all over the world
want to rent him.

Now they seem interested
in his head and brain only.

Loving money as he always has,
Bones thinks that’s just fine.

He’s in Mumbai,
at The Gateway of India,

across the street
from Victoria Station.

He feels at home here in Mumbai.
It’s an honor for him

to stand under
The Gateway of India."

You sometimes have to give it more time, Bobby.
Things can get buried around here quickly.
It's a nice Bones write, and should be posted again if the SW allows you to edit again.

Thanks dear Kacy,

You know me, I'm always impatient.

I'm pleased you like the poem.

Who is this "SW" person?

I'm a little slow.

Love Bobby
