When she gets over shouting words of swear Many moons from now Will we still love her grand poetry lines? We’ll all be reading Poet deVine If she’s been posting til quarter to three Who’d lock her po'try? With kindness you treat me will you still read me When you're sixty-three You’ll be moldier too And if you have DVD I would stay with you I could be handy lending a rhyme When your thoughts have strayed You can sit and stare by the firelight Wednesday evening Jeopardy night Taking your poems and sharing your joy Who could wish more glee? With kindness you treat me will you still read me When you're sixty-three Everyday we could eat some cottage cheese In the aisle at Kroger if it’s not too cold Sampling shrimp we’ll brave “Grandchildren,” you’d say, “it’s free” We’re a group that saves Send me a poem sweet Poet deVine Stating it’s from you Indicate precisely that you brighten my day This time don’t forget what you were gonna say Gimme your credit, fill out this form You’re not as old as me? You’re young at heart and you give us a part Are you really sixty-three? [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 12-13-2000).] |

 Ok..got me on this one!! But I thought we decided that I'm 74???? Yes, I'll read you when I'm 64 which will be in about 40 years!!!  So, I am next here right? My turn to write something for you..hmmmmm..the mind is working. |

Interesting Walt...but now I don't know if Poet Devine is 24 or 64...doesn't matter though her poetry lives on as the Beatles music does...Paul originally wrote the tune for this song when he was sixteen and I believe he and John finished this one off when they were perhaps 20 or 21. Another 10 years and the remaining Beatles will be 64. My the years do fly...James |

I loved this one. I like the way your poetry works. Always a lovely read. This one made me smile and i always need that Beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it’s the middle that counts. |
