Randy Things My Randy woke to the wings of doves Pings and echoes of former loves And a smile raced across his face Of roses and mantilla lace. His eyes took on a smoky stare To mist the confines of his lair For hiding in the shadows deep Were the phantoms of his sweep? He blinked his eyes to clear the shroud The loss of memory and the cloud And they’re before him like a list Where the ecstasies of his mist And on his lid there washed a tear The sorrow of his lost endear That sent his blood in gushing force Tumbling down a bygone course. And he sobbed a roar of fire At his age and forced retire. |

Sy, If this is what you call retirement, with all the wonderful poems you provide, on a daily basis, then I'm sure glad you and Randy are taking it easy. ![]() ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

hmmmm..heard "The Way We Were" playing soft in the background--enjoyed the morning read, and smile! "And it was at that age...Poetry arrived in search of me...And something started in my soul." |

And on his lid there washed a tear The sorrow of his lost endear That sent his blood in gushing force Tumbling down a bygone course. I think I am on your wave length today..or maybe on your flight path not sure which *s ![]() M |

My dear Maureen, There is a Randy in each of us. Randy - salacious, sexy, lustful, hot, lickerish, libidinous, horny, erotic and it goes on and on. LOL |

Mr. Seymour, as always I loved your poem this morning with my Cappuccino... But, the definition of "Randy" was delightful. I thank Maureen for asking you, because I've been wondering, too.....HeeHee!! (and, I do believe we all have a "Randy" in us...some more, some less.....) ![]() "Love makes the world go around" |
