My Flying Carpet My flying carpet will not fly Nor do I know the reason why I’ve cared for it the best I could I thought for sure it always would The magic stays within my mind I’ve lost somehow its subtle bind The touch has left my egos know It is a devastating blow Perhaps it just ran out of gas Or lost its mystic cosmic mass Perhaps my mind has sprung a leak Perhaps the bubble grew too weak It’s flown me since my childhood time Even through my youthful prime Perhaps it is a sign of age Is there a time of disengage? So here I sit with saddened heart Just wishing that my rug will start |

I laughed so loud, my dear sir. Because it is still chained...chained to the past, the old memory. Is the future you want to fly, not the past. don't be offended, sir. I am still laughing. have a very good night, dear Sir Tabin. a beautiful poem |

I think if we clean the heads, change the plugs and do an oil change -- we can get more miles out of it. It's sometimes just a matter of a major overhaul. Do I sound like I know what I am talking about? Or maybe it just needs a creative break? A good vacuuming? A change of flight plans? One thing I do know for sure, Wonderful Sir ... It DOES need you.

Well, I'll tell you what, Sy ... it seems to be working just fine from that wonderful read. But ... should you ever need a jump start, a tow, or a push to get that carpet flying, all you have to do is holler.  Thanks for my toe-tapping morning read.  Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

Seymour, this was a delightful trip, you simply loaned your carpet to US! It'll pick you up again when you're least expecting it. I'm sure of it. K |
