my father in law is at the end of his life
his name is George and I don't want him to go
but we all leave
we just don't have to think about it right now
unless we're already in George's shoes
and it's sort of bittersweet
that there's not a living soul who wants him to go
he is loved that much
(George Derby, born April 24 1920, died May 9 2009, I will not forget him)
that there's not a living soul who wants him to go...........simply wonderful, well penned

Dear Lee, I Mark 10 for your poem, but not for the message. I, a Russian, will never regard sodomites as a norm but only as pertverts despite any conventions concluded by any perverts. Here I accept responsibility with George Bush collaterally.
There is a time when we must go live like a river in full flow from moutain stream to river mouth our lives are as simple as north to south!
