I guess I've thrown A million rocks When I was young I had more time That I never needed So I threw it away. The spinning stone Is a moment thrown The distance tossed Is the moment lost When Toe's alone, He's good at stones |

He's good at so many things... including writing wonderful, thought-provoking poems. *S* I think we've all tossed a few too many pebbles, sweets... for a while, we feel invincible. *S* Then reality intrudes, we see more years behind us than ahead... and have to deal with the fact that some of those ripples are doozies. *S* Ooops... *G* I yammered so much I forgot to tell you how much I like this... or to volunteer to make Toe less alone!

Toe darling boy, you have certainly written this exceedingly well, so you aren’t just good at tossing stones. This is very thought provoking and I love it utterly You know I could never get a stone to skip over water, all the ever did was hit the water and sink into oblivion, much like my writing now come to think of it. This however won’t sink like cream it will rise to the top. Well written darling boy, I love this I utterly utterly love it Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

(sigh) I know this feeling, sweet friend, I too used to skid rocks all the time when I was a boy but was too naive to think of it this way, now it seems to have so much more depth that I would have ever thought! (big hugggssssss) This is a powerfully introspective piece, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Toerag, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

When I was young I had more time That I never needed So I threw it away. So true....the words of the immortal philospher, Mr.Toe its amazing how much time we throw away when we're young. ~ philosophical hugs Lyra |
