"In my days" The vain poet mumbled "I shared a man (or gal) or two" "But in those days" The humbled poet said "Not a one saw me like you" There is life after life in the heart of a good man (or woman). I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather...not like the passengers screaming in the back of his car. |

I like this. It is a little deep pool of wisdom. It is kind of rustic, like a treasure you would find at an antique store. Very cool! ~L |

And that is all that matters, how they see us with different, caring eyes. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Thank you Lori and JerryPat for your nice comments. I really appreciate you both! RAM, you must be talking about yourself. I don't know why you chose my poem to say all that. Why bother with a reply box when you can just post yourself? I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather...not like the passengers screaming in the back of his car. |

Sorry if you didn't care for my response... Perhaps I didn't understand what you wrote. It happens |

If you don't understand something RAM, just say so. I ain't smart enough to confuse anybody, or at least I didn't think I was. I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather...not like the passengers screaming in the back of his car. |

My response was meant as a light-hearted pun on your line... "I shared a man (or gal) or two"... No disrespect intended |
