My Exhausted Faculties

It’s been a long day
My exhausted faculties
Gone, they fall apart
I desire to finally
Be alone, fall on a couch

And my computer
Is near, ready for input
There for my comfort
For poetry is my heart
And soul of true relaxing

Whoa is the life of an MBA student! I am so proud of u and your quest....may your family shower u with all that's wonderful tomorrow...Glad u liked my version of footsies as u called it! It really is about my second chance of love after a very painful first attempt. 13 yrs the first....8 yrs almost with the real " man of my dreams." Bless u and your marriage, Russell. Guard that ring finger as your winning poem demonstrates you'll do!
