Bio: A Work in Progress. When not doing the devil's work, I'm the single parent of two great young men, living playing and working in beautiful Thunder Bay Ontario. That's at the western end of Lake Superior - the North end of Highway 61. from here, you can just drive all the way to New Orleans, though I have yet to do it.

Just because

Tulips, and squirrels

no longer dance

Too much munching on caviar,

perchance?

Just because

it's Friday

always a special day

Just Because

Hearts, bent but not broken

perhaps, like carrie's

misplaced

need venting

or mending

Hey, carrie -

wonder if they ran off together?

Your heart, and mine

If so,

I hope they are happy

in a happy place

in a state of grace

Just Because.

Carrie is Wakingupslowly, who's recent poem "It's Like This" is far superior...

Very nice, B. I'm touched.

But.... I really want us to believe that they are misplaced and not gone gone. Maybe they're just resting a little. Taking break, a pause.

Let's go with that, ok?

Lee...just because you're sweet?
tai: I'm sure it'll return when I need it, all mended
carrie: running off to a happy place is just a heart vacation. They'll return rested and ready. We gotta believe.
