This poem is dedicated to my dear cousin Bill Kessler, who died suddenly on 01/13/06.

I know I did not get to express a thank you,
for your signature saying that stuck like glue.
Somehow I wonder what you would have said,
if I told you of poetry flowing from my head.
Peace, Love, and Understanding on your christmas cards,
is now a poem signature for grandson of Bernard's.
At first I felt guilty about the lift,
but your words and poetry just seemed to fit.
I think of you often, now and then,
so my thanks to you, I now do send.
Just one more thought and I'll give what's due,
I had practiced Johnny Mathis just for you.
I only wish I would have told you this,
before you were gone, and the chance was missed.
Peace, Love, and Understanding.
Always and forever.
paul




shades of peace,love,and happiness to you

I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.
