Sorry

Only John Wayne officianados will recognize that is is based on a line used in his film, "Rio Bravo". "I'm sorry." "Sorry don't get it done, Dude." Far be it for me to tell anyone what to say, But, there comes a time when the line has to play. "I'm sorry." "Sorry don't get it done, Dude." Yes, they are words we use along the way Sometimes they are difficult, aren't they? "I'm sorry." "Sorry don't get it done, Dude." Far be it for Me...to tell ANYONE what to say! To all of those to whom I have hurt over the years knowingly or not I can only say, "I'm truly Sorry."

John Wayne was an incredible actor, I used to love to watch the old westerns, his voice was so deep and stong and you captured his style very well ~best of luck

John Wayne always told it like it is, Daniel. Great triolet! Now that Wayne's gone, the only one left with this sense of style is Clint Eastwood - and he's not a youngster. Enjoyed your poem! Love, Carolyn

Such simple words, and needed at times...the John Waynes of the world will never utter them though!
