WELLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!
I have just checked my post and I was very happy to see that many
people had replied from first glance. Now, at the time I was
selfish and I did think. WOW, all these people are paying
attention after all this time of lonliness and sorrow. However,
when I started reading I realize what good company I was among. A
bunch of good people that actually care.
This I am finding much harder to find these days. It is not
easy to deal with problems here and now but when you have people like
yourselves, I absoulutely applaude(spelt wrong I know thx....) you, and
you should do the same for yourselves. I really don't commend
people very often but when I see responses like that about a person I
don't even know but from what I read has the same belief pattern that I
may, I wish you all a good sleep tonight because after reading all the
posts I am honestly touched and I would like to dedicate a poem that I
have written years ago to you all. Thx again, and MOM please read
to to bottom pls. rest of you, this is personal.;)

Many, Many decades ago;
There was a time when animals,
Could run free through the dense forests.
Like the birds in the open sky,
They thought that nothing could ever hurt,
Their dweeling.
However, there are some things that they!
Did not have any control over.
There was a time trees.
They created a beautiful sea of greenery,
and shadows of sun.
Producing fresh, clean air,
fallen leaves blew nonchalantly in the wind;
Like playing a cat and mouse game.
However, there are some things that they!
Did not have any control over.
There was a time when fish.
Swam through the clear blue sea,
like a graceful dancer.
the waves rippled, violently at times;
over the underwater kingdom.
However, there are some things that they!
Did not have any control over.
There was a time when humans.
Ran through the forests.
There was a time when humans.
Gazed at a sacred forest of trees.
There was a time when humans.
Waded through the fresh tides of the ocean.
This time has now been and gone.
II
Planes now soar through the sky;
Leaving the flutter of birds in its memories.
Cranes creating new structures;
Replacing the crane that roamed through the marsh.
Skyscrapers tower above the urban materialism;
Only to leave the unnatural substitute of a tree.
Oil tankers glide through the treacherous sea;
While dolphins chase the anonymous intruder.
Violent tempers surge through the back ally’s;
Abandoning lifeless hearts in the process.
III
We can now go to the zoo;
too examine our past.
gazing at what could have been such an attractive planet.
Now we can only ramble through the shadows of sunlight.
wade through the ripples of waves;
with hesitation.
Our recolation has been shattered by twisted occurrences.
Change, Changes Everything.
We are what we have created.
Now we must take it for what it really is,
And not what we can’t make it.

Have a coffee on me today and deposit 35 cents for me, you are a work
of art from what I hear and I wish you all the best. I am going
to do my best to fight for what is mine but unfortuantly I have a very
hard time speaking about this subject, I can only write.
