My verse I check with regularity To ensure there's no vulgarity Then for convenience sake Hard copies of each I make And file in binders for posterity Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired © All Rights Reserved Placed No. 2 in A Rambling Poet's "Did You See My Poem, I Lost It" Contest - Jul 2010

Boy you said it perfectly, Bob. That is my down fall also. Not just one copy. I probably have six copies of my novels. One of the nursing homes wants me to reread them again. There are newer members who have never heard them and the others won't remember them. I won''t be going this week. I have the crud going around and it has canceled everything for the week. Sorry to stray from your poem. But you know never can keep my mind quiet. God Bless, Cile
