I'm not abashed to
listen to a fast fallin' rain in the
morning upon my windowpane and I'm
not afraid to cry nor abased enough to try to
be a friend again ‘cause that's what friends are
for friends are for sorting out hang ups that we
hide in, walls are for shutting out the love we
feel and also after all I'm not demeaning

enough to talk it o’er again to
arrange my vocabulary
when round about
your friends

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

when I can't seem to find

words to change the rhymes because I left them
all behind sometime and I guess that's what memories
are for, other words are for explaining about mistakes we
might a made names are for calling when there's nothing
left to say I'm not afraid of tearing up my ‘ol gray socks
chasing you around & all that what nought and I'm
not to proud to darn nor to proud to find some
yarn to sew ‘em up again 'cause that's

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

what knocks are for
you get my
drift
?
.


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

Hey, baby, you can chase me around in your old gray socks as long as you want to!  And I'll let you catch me, and what's more, I'll darn your socks for you... and if you want to knock me, you can knock me right into our bed... I am ready to rock your darned socks!

Waves of love, your wife, Rosemary
