A Horseback Song If one is traveling by donkey, Would one be singing a donkey song? If one is traveling on horseback, would one be singing a horseback song? If one is traveling by car, would one want to be singing a car song? And want to be having fun, fun, fun, now that Daddy took the T-bird away? If one is traveling on foot, would one be singing a walking song? If one is traveling by train, would one be singing a choo choo song? If one is traveling by plane across the Plains, Would one be sing a plane song? Or maybe a plain song? Or maybe a planes song? or maybe a Plains song, all the while listening to every heart, and walking the flames of the past? And the sky forecast today: Sunshine, heavy at times, Especially about Noon, Then tapering off to gentle rays this afternoon, Before diminishing to golden twilight tonight. This came to me in the shower. I will never again take for granted That I can get on Pip again. Hey, nobody's human! |

Jaime, I absolutely love your song - this is the whimsical part of you that I first noticed. I do so hope we see more of this side of you, Jaime. As far as being back at PiP, I hope none of us take it for granted. I would hate to not have PiP and be able to read the wonderful poetry that is written by people I have come to care about - people like you, my friend. Welcome back, Jaime. You were missed. Alison |

I wonder at times why writers will take a whimsical mood and deliberately damper it with a sombre conclusion. This juxtaposition unsettles me at times. I think I should try something of a similiar nature in the future. |

Excuse me. I think I misunderstood your ending. It is upbeat but like I said before there is a definite shift in mood. |

This is actually about Sunshine and is a compendium of her "locations." One was: listening to every heart. While another was walking the flames of the past. Still another was: listening to a planes song (notot plain or plain song. It's amazing and I wondered who pulled this one from so deep into Pip! Dinner time Hey, nobody's human! |
