How many times have I walked barefoot, On the beach near mom oceans waters, Speaking aloud but only she can hear, Telling her of my pain & fear… Listening hard to receive her reply, Taking away my pain, quelling my fear, Listening as well to what brings to her a tear, I as well finding it hard not to cry… She reminds me of my childhood, Of the days gone by & bygone years, For us both, mom ocean & I were quite good, Memories of us both together, those are the times we strongly revere… © ed/\/\ 4/1/09

For some one that also goes on long walks on the empty beach, I understand what you try to convey, because only those that know raw solitude can write a poem like you wrote above.
Thank for sharing.

Merry Christmas...

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...
