Recognition Recognition beats a drum That’s dried me to a prune once plum And buttered pathways that I stroll Brought fermentation of my soul I looked for me a touch a feel Followed ghosts that had appeal That lined the byways of my path Illusions washed me in its bath And now I write upon this page With wrinkled hand and touched with age No longer use, illusions spice My youth is gone I paid the price I stubbed my toe upon this stone Yet now I offer up my bone For just the slightest smallest taste To know it all was not a waste Forgive me for being lost for It’s more than I that paid the cost |

Oh, Mr. T., ye may not be as plump a plum as ye once were ~ but ye be not a prune. Ye hath aged into the finest of fine plum wines.  I gratefully sip thy silken words of poetry each blessed morning. They be as pleasing to the pallate as ye be!  EA |

That’s dried me to a prune once plum And buttered pathways that I stroll Brought fermentation of my soul ~*~ Such a pastry's treat!  |

no moment is ever wasted if lived by what is true, and a heart such as yours put on these pages blue is always treasured, just like pay and will be cherished each and every day |

And now I write upon this page With wrinkled hand and touched with age No longer use, illusions spice My youth is gone I paid the price I stubbed my toe upon this stone Yet now I offer up my bone For just the slightest smallest taste To know it all was not a waste Forgive me for being lost for It’s more than I that paid the cost ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Could this poem be any cooler????????? Sybabers your pen of humilty gets me everytime... And now I write upon this page With wrinkled hand and touched with age *kissing those hands*  *ww* |
