| Sorry to see you leave. Torchey didn't scare you off, did she? Or was it Vicki's poetry? Now that's scary! 
You're always welcome to come back.

I enjoyed a recent poem of yours that I read.... it was beautiful Alyosha.
I understand that with so many online chat sites, it's best to find the ones that suit us.... find ones where we're accepted....
I wish you well, wherever you go and hope everyone appreciates the beauty of your words.

Maybe you should have given him some. I bet he'd have stayed then.
You know of course I'm referring to some quality poetry.

I'm really touched by your messages. Thanks.
Here, in parting, is a poem I wrote for my daughter a long time ago:
TO ZOE, AGE 6
My darling, I love you
better than calico, better
than rhubarb wine
or the tickle
of spring on my ribs
as I sleep
and dream of the wind
that goes whoosh through the trees
as your presence
goes whoosh
through the rooms
of my heart and my house,
Gemini with the speed of light.
So quick are you, body
and mind, that you answer
me even before I speak,
my fingerling, my dart,
--calico, wine and spring of my heart.

Just as I thought, still trolling for the ladies.

"Ladies"? My end of town we call them lucky strikes!
I’d never been lucky with girls I confess
Don’t know who to blame for my lack of success
Cause even with ones up the back of a bus
There was always the risk of a slap in the puss
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
The first time I met you it did cross my mind
The next time I saw you there wasn’t the time
The third time I saw you I thought that I would
The fourth time I met you I knew that I would
But jean, you let me get lucky with you
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
Love her, I love her, I love her, I do...
I want you forever I want you for good
So I’m gonna treat you the way that I should
For your soul and body my hearts gonna pound
Even after the day that I’m laid in the ground
Cause jean you let me get lucky with you
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
But jean, oh jean you let me got lucky with you
Love her, I love her, I love her, I do...
Love her, I love her, I love her, I do...

That's all, folks. I'm outta here.... |
