Sorry, If I have missed some of your poetry...I don't even have a wife.. both were X'd (lol)

X'd by time, my eyes close gently in mist Rushed by the clock.. work, destiny...wife All the great poetry...that I have missed So many great poems, stories of life To my fellow poets...let it be known If I had more time, I would read you all So if have I missed, some poems...you've shown So very sorry, for time has held me thrall But I promise you all, I'll try...my best In time, god willing...I'll read you all soon All your friendships and shares...well, I've been blessed Closing eyes...Good night, morn or afternoon X'd by time, my eyes are gently bawling Sorry, got to go...my wife is calling

A humorous poem especially the last line. I know what it's like keeping up, but all we can do is our best..and I feel so bad if i have left one of my good friends out. Well penned my friend, Blessings, Jennifer.

;) Charlie, no one can keep up with all of the wonderful poems posted on Soup. I share your angst as I'm behind on reading too. Make no apologies; just read what you can. Very well expressed! Best wishes for success if this is entered in Emile's sonnet contest. Hugs, carolyn

;) Carolyn, I guess that's all I can do.. but one thing for certain (god willing of course) is that I will get around to reading some/many and of course yours :) Not for a contest.. just letting loose some feelings. Hugs, x Charlie
