Ignorance Ignorance pleads ignorance And I sit upon its fence Watching splendor go to waste I save myself the bitter taste I hear the bells that toll for me Although I’m still way out at sea The thunderclouds have gathered gray I sleep a little more each day Like a turtle in a shell I put my head into a well Stop the noise by nap and sleep It does the same as clean and sweep The acid time eats my stay and My fence slowly dissolves away And I can naught but watch the dust Heap upon my pan of trust I sweep the dust into a pile For that is the tower of my style |

Sy, More words of wisdom...  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Like a turtle in a shell I put my head into a well Stop the noise by nap and sleep It does the same as clean and sweep That's what I do, Sy. It stops me from the negative thoughts. **Don't laugh, just the other day, my mother told me that next year I will become a SR. Citizen and benefit from those discounts... sighing~ M |

I hear the bells that toll for me Although I’m still way out at sea The thunderclouds have gathered gray I sleep a little more each day Some days I wish I could make the world go away. Kind of sad Sy, and always so good. |

I'll sit on the fence with you, I'll climb your tower, I'll polish your shell what ever it takes to make me Stinky smile. Tell Randy to stop playing on your computer, hes leaving his gremlin prints on it LOL  |

Dear Seymour, some great lines here as always. Bitter and ironical in a way, but as long as you dust and nap, you will be safe! Love, Margherita |

JM, That Randy sure takes advantage of my good mature. He waits till I am asleep in my chair and then sneeks over to the computer and plays the poet. The funny thing is sometime he write some prety good stuff. LOL WWRS Margherita That's what sitten on the fence is all about. |

(sigh) Yep, that is the way to go definitely, someone has to watch the belfry and tidy up the place so one can find some clarity and have trust in the ground they step on! (big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is so well-said, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
