San Francisco’s Soulmates

                                        
                San Francisco Soulmates


You discovered the ever-seeking soul in me!
Looking for truth, for all of mankind to see!
Unaccepting of all common, unquestioned beliefs.
Ignorant, educated dullards brought to me,absolutely no relief.


Late, late into the foggy evening’s very last twinkling, summer star, 
Plato and Aristotle, greedily we devoured, while riding on a cable car, 
And, although you now are insensate and in an impenetrable grave,
See my soul, my sweet, for truth, it rants and in my poetry, madly raves.
      

                         Tribute to my Late Husband
                         With Deepest Gratitude

                       Inspiration:” When You Are Old”

A San Franciscan soul mate sounds like a fortunate time of your life, Pangie. To share that lust for truth is indeed a pleasure; not a goal for most, but it is for me, too! Again, so many great lines here, yet the last line brings to life your life!

Dearest David~people had the same love for truth that we had for life. But live for truth only now and then.And harming another? Backfires! think the world would be a much better place if we told the truth about us! Hating those who have more than us is evil.evil. Worse. Thinking of the poor as saints? )) One neends a lock ward. You are just great ! I feel kindred souls with you! I intend to take more time of and enjoy the spring with the works famous poets. Best ti you, Pangie xx

Hi Debra W))) The second line is both poetic and accurate, we were only 18! And questioning all of the ways we had been instructed to live life??No… I have not changed …absolutely not! A rowdy and rule breaker …indeed . I am. Life is harder that way I am sure I was born to be rebellious and loving.
