Crazy Me

You might understand if you ever were 
Being less a man and living in the end
Meaning to right the wrongs that fell
Just singing songs you long to tell
Trying to take on the hill
Only to fall down the well
Even when you know it's wrong
Sowing the seeds of past
Just giving up at last, oh well
In time you kind of you feel it
Your mind wishes for the turn
That blends this old crazy me
Back to that friendly spirit
I know the heart is bold
It teaches us not to love
But the heart mind and soul
Fills us, with what's above

(If you haven't seen Crazy Heart with my favorite actor- Jeff Bridges- here it is)

Crazy as it may seem I think Gareth James, new exactly what he was doing. I think it was his attention of leaving us all hanging, That makes him a winner to me. Brilliant don't you think. Hahaha, it is just a shame he did not stick around for more games. I will always enjoy the way he welcomed me in to the soup,.hahah,..Sidney LeeAnn

Mitch, if you fall down the well, at least you tried to "take on the hill." I'm wondering if you're talking about Capital Hill because I'd like to go one-on-one with Speaker Pelosi right now. In spite of the obstacles you describe, I believe there IS love in your heart. Thanks for the Soup Mail. Glad you're enjoying your time here. Love, Carolyn
