Premium MemberJack Horne It Is

Jack Horne, I can’t help but admit, 
Exhibits a quick wicked wit, 
His limericks, shrewd, 
And shamelessly lewd -
Oh boy, make me blush quite a bit. 

Such gift in my books is a plus, 
Bold heads think alike, that is us, 
Don’t deviate, Jack, 
From triumphant track - 
You’re sworn by a curse and a

Premium MemberThe Graveyard - a Collaboration With Jack Horne

Walking through the graveyard,
bird songs in the air;
sunlight makes it hard to see,
that death is everywhere.

Did I hear my name called?

it is so very peaceful here,
I could linger for hours.

I wander past the gravestones,
and hear my name again;
no one is there- sure of that,
I'm scared-   I've gone insane!

I'm feeling

joy is your gift to the world consumed with worry
humor is the light that shines from your heart
friendship you bestow freely to all

to lend an ear and send some cheer from across

Premium MemberJack Horne

I have two curious calico cats,
and just like them, I am a curious kitty,
gosh, I would like to take a long voyage,
to England and meet Jack Horne!

We have talked by comment, e-mail, letter,
I know so much about him and his life,
he is a terrible writer so he only types,
and mine is not too good either!

He

To Cyndi Macmillan, From Jack Horne

By day the toys surround her in a group,
But when her little girl is sleeping sound,
The keyboard’s where our poet will be found,
To write some magik lov - her words astound;
She always brings the gift of joy to Soup.

Merry Christmas, Cyndi  xx

*For PD’s contest

Cyndi  wrote a poem, Lov is Magik, as a girl

Premium MemberClose Friends From Afar - Co-Write With Jack Horne

From across the sea, good wishes I receive:
Cards, greetings, special gifts from a kind man I've never met.
But it's the warmth he offers that makes a difference in my life.
How blessed I am to have such a compassionate friend;
The Soup not only unites nations, but creates welcome friendships.
 
It's been six months, but it seems
