Depressed thoughts lead to great poems and early deaths, Edgar Allen Poet.

Ron

Been depressed lately myself, I guess life just throws it at us sometimes.

Enjoyed your write,

Pierre

Now is the time to make a change, Ed! Even if it is just some silly new dresses ;-)
Just remember that "The Wheel" always turns; in the meantime, take a walk in Mother Nature to lift those sagging spirits, Poet!
Be Well,
Carolyn

With Love,

Ayr Ed me younng rogue, we all have days like this I am sure but the thing to remember we never do know what is around the very next shoreline.

And just think...I have never been to Jersey....wait a little while longer for there is a light at the end of the tunnel....

Schucks, all that blood, you sure that'll be good for all them flowers, think of the environment, and you might miss, as Georg said, better feed the Herring, go out there with your paddle boot, I mean Yacht, put a bit of kerosene on the floorboards, go in style my friend, light it while playing Wagners tat ta tata, let the friends on the shore weep your dramatic departure, of course you can smoke a last joint, who would know with all them flames, a dramatic end, to a dramatic Hero, make the best of it while it lasts, so they'll miss you terribly, you might even make the papers. Blessings! Jasmin Horst

love your honesty here, Ed, and sorry to hear you're feelin blue... perhaps you have just missed your Ocean to keep you in the pink... I know I do if I'm away from it for more than a day. But you're such a survivor AND an optimistic humorist, methinks, and I can definitely hear the lift in your voice as this poem progresses into its second half... those sea breezes beckon and refresh. Irrepressible, that's what this poem says to me about you... you just talked yourself happy again!! BTW, success is all in the mind. And it's just yet another thing you can't take with you or bargain time with or for. To us here on the Den and, more importantly, to Rufuz and all others with whom you share the pleasure of a wet nose, you're King of all that you survey, inimitable and irreplaceable! And nothing is of more worth than the sunset, sea and grains or sand that are all yours right now... You will continue to rock on as long as the sea rocks with you. Foreward and shoreward, Edward :)) xx

Before killing himself, a man should learn which end of the gun is the right one or the "suicidal" will be wondering about for 25 to life after killing a dumb ass that didn't learned how to duck!

PS. and you are up to your chin in alligators if Ma and Mean Tall Woman are on your sorry act!

You are ever in my prayers, Ed; I am worried about you.....
