With all the world to see,
Will you watch it with me ?
Or will you sit
And let me go
To watch it all alone ?...

But now I find wit words fest.

He likened death to sleep
Safe in God's memory keep
While those without hope weep

The Devil Is Red
72-million went to church
To complain God left Trump in the lurch
But the angels there
Sang, "You have no prayer!
Wearing the Red just earns you the birch!"...

Untitled #72 / Curious Soul
Ah! Curious soul! Do you really believe
you are reading ink on paper? Nay!
Nay! It is blood spilled from a broken heart!
Turn away, my friend, for my soul is wretched!...

Behavior perfect
Deep cold snow how can she poop
My small dog Kissy

If my dog could talk
I try to understand her
She drown in the snow

Premium Member Ode To Tricky Dick Nixon
When they said Nixon's name, my wife would mew
"Please don't vote for him in '72." ---
  I said, "Think what we'd miss."
  Before telling her this ---
"Why switch Dicks in the middle of a screw?"...

Premium Member Einstein and the Rule of 72
Paraphrasing old Albert Einstein,
"Compound interest's man's greatest invention".
But you'll be financially in trouble,
Expecting your buying power to double,
Because he never factored in for inflation....

And she has taught me a hero 
is anyone determined to make this world a better place
for every living creature.

Beneath the Ash
this rain pours over me
will the sun ever be?
cloudy eyes just can't see

sapphire patches peek through
this mask of ashen hue
that hides the grains of blue

Gone With the Wind
Scarlett O' Hara's bonnet  bespeaks,
 "As God as my witness. I'll never be hungry again!"
 It  captures Rhett Butler, Fair Oaks and Tara, 
Survives the Civil War and Ashley's sin.
72 years have passed, that's how long it's been....

PLAY


Poise wears a style that knows the way,
Love works a smile that frees the day;
Ask that each mile leads you back home,
Yield a sure guile where frolic plays.

I chanced on a lady in waiting,
That kissed me.
And called me Baby.
"I say, hey,
It's a mistake, Lady.
You can kiss me Again,
But Your Husband,
Is Me, Matey...Baby.



Luv Ya Son.

That's Abe Lincoln, Matey.

Premium Member Hugs and Barricades
I wiped a tear from my eye
      Didn't know I still could cry

    Thought I was too jaded
      My heart, near barricaded...

    Today I saw an Arab hug a Jew
      Enemies back in '72

    Forgotten now, what caused their hate
      ~ We humans are all soul mates...

72 and a Half
I'm 72.5
How many more years on this earth?
5? Hopefully 8.
What then? Heaven? Hell? Purgatory?
Perhaps Purgatory to wash away my regrets.
Or relive them and correct them.

This leap to the afterlife is no longer nothingness
But rather somethingness
Where light will always shine in happiness....
