To Die Without Poetry… To live without poetry, Is to live without air… To live without poetry, My world would not be fair… To be without poetry, Is like a bird without wings, Or the ability to fly, No I do not herein lie… To live without poetry, Is to die a torturous death… To die without poetry, Would be not to have lived… © ed ~ 10/14/04

You are as loyal and true as you are welcome when roaming the den, reading and commenting... you have nothing to apologize for, dear heart.

If poetry be the 'food of life'... CHOW DOWN! I'm with you 100% on this one.

Hey... any update on the vanishing renee? Has there been contact? Inquiring (nosy?) minds want to know. (grin) katy xox.

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...?
