   Will you walk with me?

In the crimson sunrise
When the world's new promise
And all fair dreams arise …
Will you  walk with me?!

In the flaming sunset
When the world is mellow
And all long cares depart …
Will you walk with me?!

In the spring's first bloom
When the world renews
And all old 'hurts' unwind …
Will you  walk with me?!

In the summer's sunshine
When the world seems young
And all new hopes unfurl ...
Will you  walk with me?!

In the Autumn's passion
When the world retreats
And all warm feelings change ...
Will you  walk with me?!

In the Winter’s sadness
When the world reflects
And all old wounds reopen ...
Will you  walk with me?!

            --- b. e. adams ('here' in the 'now')

Wonderful thoughts, and hopefully you won't be alone on that walk, Bruce!

Splendid poetry and a splendid idea Bruce. Let me get my stick and we'll be off!

Loving Linny Jean is poetry.

I hope someone nice walks that walk with you. Anyone who wouldn't when asked, is not someone you want to ask again. You're such a good poet.

I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather...not like the passengers screaming in the back of his car.

Keep scribbling. I rather like it, but don't sort me out from the rest, buddy, when I post a sincere reply. Keep your exclamation marks, and your tatty replies to yourself.

Hey, you get on and do that. And I'll just ignore you. How's that?

There's no more of a beloved poet here at Pip than Bruce Adams. He's a gentle soul that doesn't deserve your sarcasm Red. To be ignored by anyone taking umbrage with Bruce, is a most welcome compliment that I too, would enjoy.


Loving Linny Jean is poetry.
