That wise..old sage..
A philosophical...gent
....Legends...he shared
And wisdom.........he lent
...
Joe the plumber......and Sarah
......Hero John......was there for them
Too damned old.......
...
Should not society bear the burden
Of what....guilt cannot erase
Every soul a soldier fighting
On that battlefield of faith
...
A taste of harvest
Permeates the air
Fragrance...igniting
.....The atmosphere
...
An old flame
Passed my way
I heard a voice
Within me say
...
Whenever I ponder
The true meaning of 'friend'
A portrait of you
....Recurs again
...
Wondering why they ever met
Was it chance or fate
Doubts and fears..should they not
The circumstance...contemplate
...
Gratitude....to you....my friend
For the exotic joy you shared
When speaking of an enchanted place
Then choosing to take me there
...
