kiss on cheek high windows flickerin' down through her pain everybody's in step with the season and ahead of the rain I asked her how the weather was and she said just a minute I’ve got to check my almanac which read tomorrow may be fifty percent slow and the other half dead I wondered if she had been out in the last week or so because I knew she was a home-body and never ever goes she lives on the fifty second floor and it’s a long way down said she doesn’t get out much or around in the town her horoscope said it was a good day to stay home but it always says that so she never really gone her biorhythms read to watch her perspectives but I knew her diet had very little objectives and being so high I couldn’t understand her low and why wouldn’t she just get up and go she whined about the rain and her umbrella broke I mutterd "he he" ‘cause I thought it was a joke I asked her if she’d like to go and eat it sounded like an idea to get her on her feet she said check the coolerator but I said (kiss on cheek) I’ll see you later [This message has been edited by lucky (03-13-2002 12:39 AM).] |

I certainly can't understand a person with those sentiments. Not at all. Excellent narration, Dale. |

Well, if it isn't the other half of one of our beloved missing members. It certainly is good to see you back. I enjoyed this as I have a lot of your poems in the past. They tell a good story and you seem to weave your thoughts well into it all. loved it! "My ears have not yet drunk a hundred words |

Loved this, and isn't it great we can talk to people like this, and whistle as we walk away, knowing we are all different, and that is okay too? The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |

(big hugggsssss) This is so very saddening, sweet friend, it hurts me to feel her pain in these words and I pray that soon she will have the strength to stand up and embrace the world again with a smile and with him both accept each others differences always! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dale, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
