A Tribute To Robert L Hinshaw, Cmsgt, Usaf Ret

If he and I were neighbors,
Why, I doubt if we’d be friends.
On many major issues, we’d be
Found on different ends.

Just pick a topic and I know
We never would agree.
Our politics alone would prove
Dissimilarity.

And yet, I love to read his poems
And he reciprocates.
Our writing’s formed a bond of which
There can be no debates.

His rhyming stories crack me up – 
They’re laughter-generators – 
And he’s aware I’m partial to
A poem that mentions “taters!”

So here’s to Robert Hinshaw,
My retired Air Force friend.
I’ll always be a reader of
Whatever he has penned!
