i'm a humorist and a poet..i've been aware for a very long time poetry is unwanted on the READER...now it seems HUMOR is unwanted as well
so i will be leaving the Reader..and will miss it very much
i came to have fun...and it isn't any fun anymore
thx to all that welcomed me here...friends made and treasured...may all of u find and live ur dreams...as another writer here would say..best Nan
When they turn the pages of history
When these days have passed long ago
Will they read of us with sadness
For the seeds that we let grow?
We turned our gaze
From the castles in the distance
Eyes cast down
On the path of least resistance
Cities full of hatred, fear and lies
Withered hearts and cruel, tormented eyes
Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise
Beating down the multitude and
Scoffing at the wise
The hypocrites are slandering
The sacred halls of Truth
Ancient nobles showering
Their bitterness on youth
Can't we find the minds that made us strong?
Can't we learn to feel what's right
And what's wrong?
What's wrong?
Cities full of hatred, fear and lies
Withered hearts and cruel, tormented eyes
Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise
Beating down the multitude and
Scoffing at the wise
Can't we raise our eyes and make a start?
Can't we find the minds to lead us
Closer to the Heart?

you see i have a favorite blogger here...an elderly gent of great understanding and a plethora of knowledge of politics (federal..state and county) as he's been a journalist of some note for a very long time
no i'm not telling u how long!!!
suffice it to say he like me is in someways "older then dirt"
here's my dilemma...i know little about politics in spite of my advancing age and intelligence...and when i visit this fellas blog i often go completely off subject
i kid with him...flirt brazenly with him (altho i completely respect his long term happy marriage)...i post a poem in his comments if the subject matter seems appropriate...we discuss and sing POOH songs together...and i offer to buy products he has stocks in to keep them from falling in the stock market...hahahahaha
i just generally play with this more then lovely man
i have e-mailed him thru the reader to ask if my shenanigans r tiring to him and he has said "no they aren't"
i have also told him that any time he sees fit he should delete my comment...and in print he has resoundingly said he won't
but now i'm wondering...not just about commenting to this gentleman ...but to many i comment to...because i'm kinda a court jester around here...even if u can't see my funny pointy hat or hear the bells ringing
i'm kinda feeling that people like me might be banished from the READER Kingdom
maybe a READER blogger shouldn't be comic relief
