Bang… Bang You’re Dead By Paul Wilson I was hiding behind the sofa waiting to ambush you Six shooter in hand I had a clear view Bang… Bang You’re Dead Running to and fro between house and yard I was the sheriff you shot the bank guard Bang…Bang You’re Dead You grabbed a hostage and ran out the bank My name was Wyatt yours was Frank Bang…Bang You’re Dead Together we went off to war nothing could keep us apart The years have passed so quickly we both won a Purple Heart Bang…Bang You’re Dead We both work the streets for a different cause I fight evil and the bad guys you sell drugs and steal cars Bang…Bang You’re Dead We met tonight in a dark alley It was you and I facing off in death valley Tomorrow will never be the same Tonight we played for real It wasn’t any childhood game Bang…Bang I’m Dead ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

Paul, I got a quick view of Cher and Mod Squad and CSI and the local news... but you held it quick and fast and even musically... Well done, for the topic... I'll be looking for lighter daze. " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love |

Hi, Paul! It is so good to see you posting again. I find that there is a little gift for me in every poem of yours that I read. This one actually conjured up wonderful memories of playing cops 'n robbers with my brother. I had my own holsters and cap guns and I "always got my man!" lol I enjoy the versatility of your writing talent! Loving hug, Linda |

Earth Angel...So you were sort of a tomboy huh, playing shoot em up with your brother. LOL. I can remember those days like they were yesterday. Taking sheets and making a tent to sleep in and play cowboys and Indians in on rainy days. finding a big old cardboard box and making a fort or bad guy hideout. You don't know how good it makes me feel to have you say you get a little gift out of each of my poems you read. Thank you so very much for that...Paul Sue...Thank you for taking time to read and reply. I appreciate it very much...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (10-21-2007 07:38 PM).] |
