I rambled city streets wandered the countryside I've slept in places you wouldn't believe sown my seed and plundered what I was missing was the strength of a woman a woman's touch healing power and eyes bore of history's liberation for my lost soul I needed the feel of her comfort the solace of her charm and her true concerns like a quiet snowfall and the springtime of her smile would that she could have lead me out of my despair and into the consciousness of my soul when I would have strayed too far beyond when the street life beat me down and put my life in confusion grant me the resolve of a woman ©August 17, 2015 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (10-13-2015 09:53 AM).] |

I feel this as a call to Mother. Your needs were so deeply rooted in your sad young life. You moved around so much as you searched, you did not give a woman the time to really know you.Just my thoughts upon reading this. best to you Jerry. Jo |

Your thought are, as they say, "right on," Jo. You always seem to capture the moment with my poems, god knows you have read enough of them. Thank you. ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

"woman needs man and man must have his mate, that no one can deny"... "People, People who need people..." "When a man loves a woman... ...oh my, make me stop! Everything is in a song somewhere. Good introspective writing JerryPat. A little levity is also good for the soul. Try to find some wherever and whenever you can and play your best bluff with the cards you're dealt. Me? I'm a chicken...I fold. 88's your way friend She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast". |

"play your best bluff with the cards you're dealt" I try to, I'm not too good a folding. Thanks, Ticklefingers. |
