One of those sales rep poems written many years ago.

The days they drizzle bye

 

The rooms their all the same

 

The acting is continuous

 

Their faces never change.

 

The roads can drive you crazy

 

The nights a man to drink

 

The loneliness makes you search your soul

 

At least you get time to think

 

The memories of your loved ones

 

They keep on flooding back

 

It’s funny how you love them

 

When you don’t know when you’ll be back

 

The times, they must be changing

 

You must do as your heart desires

 

You must live a life contentment

 

That is all that is required.   9/8/89

Hello Tony,

Entirely moving in emotion and action...the flow of your words takes me there..."That is all that is required."
