No Dreams Tonight

Can't sleep, deep in thoughts, keeping beat with the clock. Looking threw mini blinds. Olive tree branches, draping down; I'm envyous, they seem relaxed. I see the moon between the leaves. No barking dogs, just stillness. Quiet moments, calming down. Keeping thoughts, down to a roar;--- good night all. 03/11/14 written by, Larry Berdoo WRITE ON!

Thank you, Mrs. Kendrick, there is no doubt in my mind; this little guy will ever forget his loving granny, and pawpaw! When he comes up to you and looks at you and say's granny, can I have a cookie? Stop; look into his eyes, pause,--- your etched in his mind, forever more! No money can match that love.
