Love Lost (Short Story) - 4/7/2008 3:35:19 PM
Walt - I missed this before...oh, but that was a time I wasn't online, Nov. '07.
It's so sad, this story, but a jolt to the mind that tells us "Always tell those you love, that you do love them." Might just make a difference in one's life...

Back In The Day (Short Story) - 8/9/2007 12:20:36 PM
I know! How about video games and computers, Walter? Children hardly play these days! and it's true - it's not safe these days anymore. We used to run from one street to the next, at five mothers would stand outside their gate calling out to their children to return - for a bath and supper. Would a parent dare dfo that these days - with the peodophiles and all the evil that crawl around these days.
Great one, Walter! God bless,
Sandie.

Retired (Article) - 2/19/2008 9:34:52 AM
Never...no never grow cold. There is more great life to be lived. Been retired (but busier than ever) for wee bit over 13 years, and thankfully have time (now) for rest/recouperation for these aging bones. So thankful I made my trip to Ireland near 5 years ago; couldn't do that now. So always do those "can-do"s when you can, and replace them with NEW "can-do"s down the line! Keep writing...and Blessings, Walt!

O' Walter this so so beautiful.....and so true I will dare to say!!

Like all the joy that lives
Rolled up in the sand
To be washed a way by the waves "

Out Come War (Article) - 11/28/2003 9:48:12 PM
Great statement of historic wars spreading or defending the status quo. Instead of joining the paradox of battle for world peace it's time to step back and search new ways. We can't expect change from the "top down" we have to do it ourselves if world peace is to be won. I love your writing.

The horrors of wars/disasters are those images (ghosts) that linger long after the wars are over. Unfortunately, the minds of warriors are not taught how to block the ghosts!
Well written, Walt.

Ghost Haunts Me (Poetry) - 6/5/2014 8:57:18 AM
Describes well the horror that soldiers go through, first, in war, and then much later when they can't forget.

Well said in your poem, Walt, but we shouldn't hold on to those sad words...huh?

Sealed With Wax (Poetry) - 11/20/2007 5:46:40 AM
the pain, the longing "no one calls my name"
branches of strong willow
slithly moves in the breeze
if you but listen
she is whispering
pillow last tucked
all is sealed tight
long left that place
i seek your arms still in the night
for your time still is off is long
happiness and peace i embrace
for if i have a chance once more
i shall invade another to just touch your face
branches of strong willow
i slightly move in the breezes
it is your name still
I am whispering

Best fucking poem I have ever read of yours, Walter . . . I've read it twice and shall go through it again, and again . . . Far too much to decipher at first or second read, at least for me . . . I love the illusory riddles and the play on deception as you wander through each stanza(s), taking on the literary ghosts of yesteryear . . . Am I impressed? You bet. I shouldn't be because I know of your willingness to flirt with immortality . . . THIS is outstanding . . .
