My only regret
is I cannot stay
within these blue walls
and read poetry all day,
but the mundane chores of life beckon
and the laundry screams
from the pampered hamper.
(thanks VAS )
So I'll pack up and leave
so the washer won't grieve,
but you'll still be with me
in my playful daydreams.

I regret,
I have but one life to give.

Kacy,
LMBO Wish I only had one regret! Cute.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Hehe, thanks guy. Honestly, I really need to get something done around here today. It's amazing how I can ignore the laundry until Virginia takes a peek inside my apartment...how did she do that?  right through the screen! Talk about hackers!!!

Thanks, golden one. I never thought about that option...hmm. Oh well, it's halfway to the laundry room door already, may as well finish it off. Now, who wants to clean up the kitchen??? Silence...

These doggone pages can eat time, I know.
Glad you had time to write of it.

Is this your sock???

In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward".
