Frank Abagnale as made famous by the semi-biographical movie "Catch Me If You Can"

LET’S BE FRANK “Let’s be Frank” Abagnale - persuasion of gold, greed, status NOT, but for the love of a wife, for the whispers of sons, and “Pardon” me not responsibility screams in his heart confessed, blessed stand up guy for teens that are ONLY kids! “Let’s be Frank” for he is kind and wise beyond his years. 6/16/2017

I really enjoyed this most visceral poem, Kim. Honesty is a huge turn-on to down-to-earth people. Wonderful points illuminated in this thoughtful poem. Love and hugs always.

This was nice Kim, very well written and on point. I don't have time to watch the video but I am familiar with his story.

The last few minutes is the best, about how his wife saved him, his love for his family, his not accepting a pardon, etc... wonderful!
