Everyone Writes

Everyone writes
perhaps not with
pen and pad
but the soul is
a slate, sometimes
a lifetime indelible

I pray, when leaving
this world I am allowed
to take Whiteout and an
eraser: the Whiteout, for
my own ink-transgressions;
and the eraser, for an Atheist
surprised by the unexpected
rub....

The title got me here, your succinct, wit and thought got my painful arm to move across the keyboard to tell my good friend Joe he’s given me yet here hereanother smile to sleep on, that is. After some bites of excellent sharp cheddar. So glad I seem to be well enough to read her Been awhile BlessU Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 10/13/2022 7:59:00 AM Hi Sally; did not know you were ill -- hoping you are on the mend. Cheddar, a little wine, my kind of bedtime snack. Oh!~ need my Puccini as well. A beautiful love aria. The first act in La boheme. Blessings my friend.
