My Own Britches ~*Marge Tindal*~ Well, folks here's a story that will give you a glimpse of my plight It's all I can do to wear my own britches and sometimes even those are too tight I haven't the time or inclination to wonder about the others Who's doing who - Who did what and if he spoke kind of his mother I've only one lot in life to tend with friendships on the side Gossipy thoughts from others I've not the time to abide If we're burning at the stake then get those fires a'blazing Cause I confess I've lusted over poets thoughts put here for gazing String me up and let me swing Gallow me to death But just before I go let me hear once more that romantic poetic breath It's all I can do to wear my own britches No other britches do I own So if they're talking about me they're leaving some other poor soul alone ! ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Hi Marge, This was delightful and was a very good message for us all to think about, dear friend. However, right now I'm not thinking because I'm laughing too hard. Wonderful!! ![]() Michael Proust- "Love is space and time measured by the heart" |
