Interim On Ice For Bob Hinshaw

The snow fell like white tinselled stars. She was in love, inhaling of planet, Mars Studying his angel, silken strands of hair. Oh, how longingly, his warm love to share! On Arctic-like ice, he did most happily kneel. Tightening her white skates, with glistening blades of steel! Winter’s precious moon lavishly did shine On these two,lovers, where the lake was frozen, so romantically, divine! Peerless moments like these, they oh so fondly cherished. Long after their children were gone, their candle of love, stays vibrantly eternal. And, no, not for an earthly second, will it ever be extinguished! ~For Robert and his late wife, Vera, Hinshaw~

Thank you, Pangie! How thoughtful of you to place in poetic form the love of my life. Vera was a saint here on earth and now dwells with the saints. Bob h

You are most welcome. I know you loved Vera and the Lord! One day, you , too will be with her and the saints! I have gotten to know you. You are far more than the limerick man of PS! You are a patriot and one who spent decades in the service, keeping this country safe.not impressing people as a politician. Nor wined and dined by a faux president with Maine lobster, while Americans have less food and gas. And future oil free! Christmas wishes, Pangie
