Sometimes (Revised For Deborah Guzzi)

Sometimes all it takes is an ideal. Something in my mind spins the wheel. Then words on paper wait for more words. Speaking with my mouth more words to be heard. Are they rhyming? Are they absurd? I bow my head and to God I pray. "What would you have me to say?" I think of the humble, those who have not. I think of the government, that does'nt do squat. I think of the churchs, who preach of goodness but don't believe in miracles as one of it's uses. I think about the falseness of fairy tales. And how deep inside we still believe them to be true. And i think about tomarrow what will it bring me and you. Yesterday is gone but it's has found a place in my mind. On the paper I tell my memory and it gets them every time.

As I said earlier today, John, your work is taking on new heights in both meaning and writing skill. When we subscribe to "the falseness of fairytales," we are setting ourselves up for a big fall. Great work, dear friend. Much love, Carolyn
