Which one is me...? I was about 19 or so then...

Can you tell which one I was, My hair then long, never a buzz, On my face only peach fuzz… Try outs to be a life guard, That was then, this is now, I had no desire to save lives, Little did I know someday I would be a bard… My home at the time in the background, Not long before the upheaval of its tearing down, Built in its place condominiums, off the subject I do again sound, Who will find me in that picture, for that you will get a prize, No smile did on me do you ever see, my hair like a Dutch boys, no lies… © ed ~ 4/4/06

Haha, this is too cute, who would have though that you once were young too? Can't really tell which one you might be, we hope you'll post it next time :)

We all got em''...

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?

...NEAT...
