Great Longing
There's a great longing
to return back to the days
ere
when you were amidst us
now no more
yet
We shall continue to remember you
yeah you bet
time and tide never waited
for anyone as yet
So we too will be on a similar boat
you bet
but hopefully
not really as yet

dear lovedly,
is this poem about Jess T. I miss him terribly. he was a good teacher and a very good friend. not too many people/poets understood him and his ways. I'm glad that you did.

yes he was soft
but didn't like my poetry
as much as
IAN ESKER AND JUDY
STILL WE can pray for them
As our own eyes dim we can no longer play in whim the stars forever stay bright whether we normal human in this mundane world stay left or right only our memories should for ever be bright like the twilight ere last night remember all bedded deep we might
