It is Winter My watch band is broken and I need to get more cigarettes. Yesterday morning blueberry pancakes would have been good. Bluebirds are pretty ...or plain, with butter and honey. Connie Francis didnt have a mole like Anne My sister liked Honey West Wild Wild West was good I should get some batteries and a watch band I liked John Cameron Swayze's voice Road House was a good movie Sam Elliot died The Untouchables was a good show Haystack Calhoun was a big guy Haystacks are fun Mr. Greenjeans seemed like a nice fellow Although, I was a bit disturbed when I found out his real name Not sure why Something to do with "Lumpy" and "jeans" perhaps I don't like instant mashed potatoes but I will eat them I should make a sandwich Not smoking makes me hungry I will throw some bread to the birds It is Winter *** No That was not a very good poem Here is one that I wrote yesterday when I walked to the store. I should have gotten pancake mix and more cigarettes. Oh well On a guardrail... I start pondering... so, I push myself up the hill My mind is still when I'm wandering. My mind wanders when I'm still. I can't escape the damage done. But, I'll tell you... for what it's worth... There are no names to name No body to blame I'm just trying to get over my birth. Yes It's short The guardrail was cold. It is Winter |

It is indeed winter, and I think you have cabin fever... nevertheless, it is good to see you here! Warm ![]() |

This is the first thing that I read on this site & I love it! i don't want to read poetry that is measured & scientific, I want to gain an insight into someone's real thoughts & feelings & this is what this gives..... |

My mind is still when I'm wandering. My mind wanders when I'm still. I can't escape the damage done. But, I'll tell you... for what it's worth... There are no names to name No body to blame I'm just trying to get over my birth. A very efficient way to say how unsuccessful our attempts to understand the big WHY sometimes appears to be. A floating mind may suddenly hit upon some great answers ... you never know. A fun ride! love Margherita ![]() |

I liked this. It was different and it held my attention to see what the next line would be. I'm not poet enough to write something that good so I have to rely on the talent of a poet like you. Thanks for brightening my winter's day. |
