I'll write some new stuff "soon".. I promise..

Waft every crest upon your destined sea
Embrace the Wave of Serendipity
Lest its elusive arcane ecstasy
Refurl with sail for all eternity

Nan, hi. This wise and wee verse may be a repost, but it's brand new to me and I like it!

Nan,
Thanks for reposting, I hadn't seen this and I couldn't agree more.
The new stuff will come when it is ready, but don't miss it.

'tis a fine poem you have penned Nan, full of wisdom and expertfully crafted.
Would I be able to delve into your wisdom to get some insight into the following conundrum that has been perplexing me for years.
We have Connie's checking account, and Connie's and my joint checking account to ensure equal financial footing.  Oh twell, such is life...  I did enjoy the poem.

Nan, This sounds so familiar to me but I have never seen this post either. I thoroughly enjoyed reading - the flow was even and easy and the end was terrific - however the title did give the end away- so sorta knew where this was going at the get-go. Thanks for letting me see this. Panne

I'm so grateful to see you guys stopping by...

Bob - Thanks - If only we could all do it, eh?...

Mike - Hmm.. The checking account syndrome... So - You give to the joint checking account.. Connie gives to the joint checking account... and Connie gives even more to hers... Sounds like she's giving and giving and giving.... Judging on the facts - Isn't that the way it's supposed to be?... Hugs to you both, my friend..  

PdV - and then some...

Mysteria - and so it goes... Thanks for stopping by...

VAS - Thanks muchly - The poem I can take credit for - The sunset - That's all Ron's doing...

Panne - Nice to see you here - Thanks..

Nanners...this needs another go 'round although it hasn't fallen yet. But..geesh..I have to make sure. Soo..you're still up? or is that ME who is still up? You must be just getting up.   GOOD MORNING NAN!
