stanzas of couplets

that won’t let you forget the two pencil
portrayals and suspicious betrayals coupled
to meaningless falls chases & two sided faces
resentful dreams nasty calls and machines for
phone walls of calendar races can’t find the
address or spaces to park your car and

your late ‘cause you had to walk
to far beyond coercions &
rainy day corrosive
desertions &
did you
get
on
line
and
check
your mail
in time or did
you just forget it all
were you able to stay in
bed get out of your head did
you recover at all do you feel
you been left behind well
then if you didn’t you
haven’t got the

time
.


Writing isn't just something I do, it's something I am.
To write of feelings that touch all hearts in some manner is my delight.
-Marge Tindal

Dale--you are in my thoughts, and you know...time does just keep on moving and the snow is on the mountains...and soon February will be over.

Bumpintine
Bumpintine
Won't a bump
be mighty fine
Another trip
around the forum
cause I think
it's awful boring
without a little
bump or two
Here's one from me
just for you!

Happy Bumpintine!


Are we having fun yet?

This poem makes me think that crawling into our warm waterbed and hiding under the down comforter burying my head in a pillow might be the sweetest thing! I'm so tired of showing the house and etc., etc., etc. Yes, just plain tired.

I liked these words!!!

I want to thank you all once again... I know you won't see this unless you return here again... But I send each and every one of you my love and caring... And don't forget to keep on writing...
