I'd write something pretty
to brighten my day
but these ominous clouds
stand in the way

I see    slivers of light
tis surely a sign
but the sun holds steadfast
        in it's refusal to shine

It is dark here
and I am afraid

that my own sanity
slowly does fade

please, oh please
don't ask me to smile


excuse me for a little while

Through this darkness, oh so vast
here I'm held, in this impasse

I really want to care,
I want to feel something,
let me dig a little deeper
nah, still nothing~
my give a DAMN is busted. Jodee

ahhh, there you are, where have you been?

I'd write something pretty
to brighten my day
but these ominous clouds
stand in the way


Sheesh, you underestimate yourself...way to much, for always do you leave the reader of your delightful poety to ponder many things...reading you is like visiting an outdoor musikfest...

Tell me...will you be playing in the Allentown area of PA soon? Well if not, you should be soon, they don't know what they're missing.  

Outstanding write!

The natural process of "things" can not be forced,
likewise there are days we just don't feel like smiling.

It's a woman's prerogative, but she can always change her mind.  

Hugs, sweetie~
