A Mojo Glows Within ~~~  This dime has graced for longest time a chain beneath my chin My father placed it there for me as his did the same for him It isn't much within thy clutch its pickins fairly slim Yet it plies a gleam within the eyes of a priceless next of kin ~ A drifting branch upon a shore a seashell a piece of glass The shell though empty placed to ear resparks a faded past The branch in truth an ancient sword time's magic blinds the fool If we but knew the secret words the glass returns to jewel ~ A mojo glows within this coin as dad returns to boy All for one and one for all recast to youth's envoy The hours fill the waves contend consume ... though can't destroy the bond surrounding evermore A father and his boy ~~~ |

Oh, Rex~ 'A drifting branch upon a shore a seashell a piece of glass The shell though empty placed to ear resparks a faded past' Such poignant heart-phrasing~ Beautiful~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

What a darling write and picture. You have a very special Mojo! Very expressive verse of sentimental capture. Sincerely, Regina |
