Over Rainflowers and For Love


I began a journey long
Ago,  am  old  now --
I know, I know-- but
Something strong, bold,
Gave purpose, emerged
Out of all --right and wrong--
All lyrics, songs in life.
Enthralled,  I  still have  some
Some strength  if  called,
Whenever  or  where, and
Shall in all my best be there.

  4. You may be old
    Or so I am told
    You've got a heart of gold
    And inner beauty to behold

    I am glad to witness your and Norma's stories through your poetry, Geo.

  6. We are all getting old. You have reminded us all how age can have meaning that is beautiful and tender as well. The beauty in your poetry tells that time has only enhanced the fine sense. God Bless.
