Purely Good

Mr. Rogers was purely good
Like his peaceful neighborhood
   An ordained minister who didn't preach
   ~ using the airwaves to life's lessons teach

Thanks for the comment and the memories. That sweater; those gym shoes; that model train... Fred Rogers was an island of stability midst a sea of change. :) gw

He was a gentle soul who will be long remembered. I loved your tribute to him Gershon. Happy Valentine's Day my friend! : )

And did I hear "navy seal" with "spark and zeal?" I loved that guy! My children were getting pretty tired of him when they got in their teens, but not me!

Yeah, I can sure see where teens wouldn't cotton to old Fred McFeeley Rogers. But for you and me and others, he was an everlasting gem! :) gw
