He's a deceased actor who still has plenty of fans, including me.
Dan Blocker died fifty years ago today at the age of forty-three.
He and his family moved to Switzerland because he was against the Vietnam War.
When he had gallbladder surgery, he didn't know that his death was what would be in store.
He commuted back and forth to the USA to star in Bonanza until his untimely death.
On May 13, 1972, a very talented actor passed away when he took his final breath.
He made Bonanza great but half a century ago, he was a man who the world lost.
Fifty years ago today, people had to say farewell to the man who starred as Hoss.
He was too young to die and when everybody lost Dan, it was a damn shame.
Bonanza ended just one season later because without Dan, it wasn't the same.
Dan's death caused his family, fans and the Bonanza cast members plenty of devastation.
It was half a century ago today when millions said goodbye and mourned in many nations.
[Dedicated to Dan Blocker (1928-1972) who died 50 years ago today on May 13, 1972]
One day I sat next to an Old Man. He looked at me and asked if I knew who he was? I told him all I knew about him is what they call him in town. They call him Crazy Man. He laughed and said that I Am. He told me he had an idea one day, he decided to melt down some rubber threw in some colors and swirled it all around. Then he rolled it up into a ball and let it cool and through it on the ground. He said that ball bounced all around and higher than he expected it would ever go! The strangest thing is it would always roll right back to him whenever he threw it, it was the strangest thing. I had to name that ball, so I named it after me! Only a Crazy Man could make a Crazy Ball like that you see. One day that Crazy Ball just disappeared and I looked for it everywhere I thought where could it be? Time passed and I went to town and I saw a man sitting on a bench and my Crazy Ball was in his hand! I said that's my Crazy Ball you have. The man said it was the craziest thing that this crazy ball rolled right to my feet while I was sitting on this bench out of nowhere. I picked it up and had it ever since then.So if a Crazy Ball rolls up to you. Your the new owner of a Crazy Ball because they have a mind of their own! That's because they were made by a Crazy Old Man like me you see. That there is how the legend goes about the Crazy Ball so pass it on like it was told to me!
I create - my speaker creates tone
Choosing words selectively - having diction
Writing with an implied attitude
The subject it is created
Whether it be fiction or nonfiction
I accentuate and it's syntax in tact
Dramatically forming a phrase
Or sentence therefore into imagery
Detailing - a sound effect
Rhyming - timing - I recollect
Harmoniously - the meter in fact
Plays a role - reading
Listening to a poems language
I hear a voice of it's speaker
The tone we catch
Feeling we sense
In turn! with Process of Association
Voila - deciphering a meaning!
Remarkable be that of the poem
You read -you comprehend - Hence
Developing appreciation.
Thus art - the poem
creatively writing.

I am not the only settler
who cannot repay his wealth.
I’ve been looking for confusion,
to flout, again.
Take me forward
to the timeless
left.
I love you, through opposites,
Lord Huron.
‘Take Me Back to the Night
We Met,"
Take me forward
to the time
we left.
Which of these is backwards?
Which of these is forwards?
Fiction/nonfiction
Am I exiting?
Am I entering?
Am I timing this reading?
Am I wondering this reason?
Am I finally… in/out
and all about?
Is there reasonable
clout in heaven?
James Barrie, please
whisper to me:
‘This is Neverland!’
Then let me,
believe you.

and label it:

Gather my remains from the noose you keep
Last of the darkened sheep
Stress minus satisfaction so I lose no sleep
A fallen sculpture from the noose you keep
Last of your darkened sheep
No apologies, for I shall lose no sleep
Another episode, epidemic
Pieces of my debt’d limit
Volts of electricity
The reception, should’ve filmed it
Another suspect misfits your description
As I sat back I realized
These spectators adore my addiction
Sudden changes would restore my ability
To produce nonfiction
A given charge and I’ll blow
Son of friction
Once again
Officer has chosen me to wrongly accuse
No mistakes
The privilege has been to longly abused
Swearing the good book, the got warrants
Monroe’s PD as scandalous as hot torrents
Illegally born
Another uniformed eagle torn
Blah Blah, just another kid blaming a cop
In your eye sight
I remain the criminal to be stopped
I’m everything you could never be
An image of purity, but doubt you’ll ever see
So gather my remains from the noose you keep

There are four main literary genres: poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and drama. < i'm like "Fruit Loops", i mix'm up ;)
Likewise, my hungry for the study uv werdz i found in those same 15years(and counting) yep, Linguistics: Which iz the scientific study of language and its structure, including the study of morphology, syntax, phonetics, and semantics.

Another Friday has arrived
No meat I do sigh
I eat the fishes from Saint Peter’s wishes
Fried or grill
The sea food fits the sacrificial concept bill
Bring the tarter
For a starter
While other condiments enhance
This feeding chance
But all one is doing is not eating meat
Isn’t the fish just as sweet?
As that piece of meat?
Purpose is not to give up
Instead raise a cup
In remembrance of Saint Peter and the stand he took
Referenced in the holiest book
The letters and readings published in the text
Have for centuries earned one’s respect
We believe these are nonfiction accounts
Explaining human civilization and what it is all about
Yes, these stories are supposedly are true
Written by those who saw biblical power plays through
Today’s 2020 Lenten year
We state without a tear
Enormous things have been taken away
Before the 2020 resurrection day
I can say stand by one’s belief
By showing in 24 hours going without eating any beef
This challenge will make one strong
While waiting for those to confess on what they did in 2020 was wrong
It was hard for her husband and child to believe what she had done.
She ran off with a sugar daddy and abandoned her husband and son.
She did her husband wrong but I believe what she did to her son was worse.
She was a greedy woman who decided to put money first.
She was dumped by her sugar daddy and she asked her husband if he would take her back.
Her husband said No when she returned because intelligence is something he doesn't lack.
He told her that she left them once and he wouldn't give her a chance to do it again.
This woman loved money too much and ended up having to pay for her terrible sin.
She thought she could reconcile with her husband but she didn't succeed.
She abandoned her husband and son, stupidity is often caused by greed.
(Sadly, this is a true story about a man who I met)
Standing here I begin
to take in my worth
So much I have achieved
to date on this earth
My mind drifts back as my
face is kissed by a breeze
Blessed through life, struggles
never being at ease
I have my children who are
my joy and my pain
They have helped me in
remaining blissfully sane
One marriage, but even if
it didn't work out you see
I could never be with one
who'd not let me be me
I'm raising a child and it
doesn't matter she not mine
I love her unconditionally,
as if it was by design
Never questioned any of my
life's major decisions
They've always led me through
life's insightful visions
I'm always learning I've never
done anything 100% right
But I've learned from my mistakes
it's a never ending fight
Grateful for my friends on soup,
you've all been so great
Each of you with your amazing
talent and unique traits
I love how we are continually
growing you see
Each new day we are never
who you once use to be
Take pride in your struggles
they help you to grow
So very many lessons in life
I've learned, I'll never just plateau
So I take inventory of my life,
announcing my benediction
Spreading words of what I'm grateful for,
my story of nonfiction
