I appreciate all kudo's but I should extend them to you, you are the reason I am here, you are the ones that have to put up with me and my sometimes crazy writes...thanks...ed

NUMERO SIX HUNDREDO…


 


Have yet to make it where I want,


Have yet to see myself through to the special number,


That special number that no one likes,


I have written about it before, but the next time,


Will be the real write, the write just at the right moment…


 


But yes, 600 is still a quantitative number,


One that I never thought I would achieve,


Each hundred I acquire, is one hundred more,


Than that I had ever thought I could put out on this tour,


This tour of life, can we call it anything else, if we do are we sure,


That the next tour won’t be better, more to our liking,


Maybe that of living full time for the rest of our lives at the shore…


 


So, let me say this, thanks again, dear Scott and Bobbie,


If not for you, my tour here in this life would still be a bore,


Now I have this talent, that I never thought I had,


Till you my friend Scott,


Forced the issue and allowed me the chance


To show the world and myself just what it is I got…
