At 72

since I can't
go home again
be a child
think childish

but I can
forget back
just go forward
a 72 year old kid

let me tell
you about
my new 60
gig video ipod

ordered it today
from ipod store
shipping 5-7 days
I can't wait

they'll even
engrave it

Heeeeheeeeheeee! Henry, you are sooooo full of enthusiasm in doing everything, so full of positive engergies. I think we all have to learn to live life the way you do. You are just having fun with all your toys, aren't you?

Great write to introduce the product; and I also like the history of the walkman that you've introduced in the link below your poem. What an interesting article!!!!! No doubt, this goes into my library!

Thank you for the smile you've put on my face this morning!!!!!

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
