Good one..My father-in-law used to say, "Going down to the river, going to get my rocking chair, if these blues don't leave me, I'm going to rock on away from here"..This one reminded me of him.Sara

Stopping by to say hello and let you I enjoyed reading your poetry today Jimbo. I am in the process of packing up to move in a couple weeks so not much time for one on one. I will be stopping by when I can. Have a wonderful weekend and keep your pen flowing. Love and blessings, Carol
