Special

Someone told me I was special Like a prized and cherished vessel. I didn't say much, but my heart was stirred By the words that I'd just heard. Words don't come to me that easy Unless I have the "keys" so breezy. Then my words come out just right They ride the breeze just like a kite. So let me tell... Sign in to see full entry.

Gone Awhile

I'll be gone for a week or two Some old friendships to renew. We'll be having lots of fun Doing things while on the run. Don't think I'll be doing blogs I'll use this time to just de-fog. But I'll be back, can't stay away Blogging's become my favorite play. Sign in to see full entry.

Baby Laugh

Older

A lot of my friends are the younger set. I love their joy, Oh, yeah, you bet. They make me smile, nay, laugh out loud! They stand out in any crowd. When I'm with them, I feel young, too. Never then do I feel blue. While I feel young, and oh, so bold, I hope I don't make them feel old. Sign in to see full entry.

Fran

My little sis is such a pain, Three years younger, makes me insane. I'm in high school and know it all, She's beneath me, but shows such gall. Although we're so closely kin, She can get right under my skin. I know we should love our siblings, BUT, I just don't feel it, that's what's what. Until last... Sign in to see full entry.

To I?

I heard him say, I cannot lie, "For you and I they always try." You and I try till we die, But do they always try for I? For this is what I think I see, They try for you, they try for me. Not you and I, I beg and plea, Don't try for I, but try for me. For those of us who have a need I know they... Sign in to see full entry.

Make-up

When at the mirror I do my face The flaws no longer will erase. First comes the basic base Then foundation is the case. I do my eyes and also brows A little blush as time allows. And hope, as I put on my blouse, Curiosity I won't arouse. Sign in to see full entry.

Gary

I remember you, Gary, my friend for awhile, You came to my aid when my need was on file. You helped me more than you ever knew. Friends like you are so very few. You wrote me a poem, used my name in it twice. I remember I liked it, thought it was nice. I've lost it by now, but it's still in my mind.... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

When I was young I had no care I had no wrinkles and lots of hair. Who thought then, that just as men, Ladies hair, too, can get real thin. Who would think when in their twenties, With hair like copper, just like pennies... When life's passed by and nearly through, They'd see your pic, and say, "that's YOU?" I have heard that a guy named Link Told folks that growing old does stink. This he said, Misters and Misses, "Growing old'w just not for sissies."
