Abraham Lincoln looked at the time traveler.
“So I die tonight, and nothing to be done about it?”

“I’m afraid so,” said the traveler.

The Tree Feels No Pain Poem by Gajanan Mishra

The tree feels
No pain when cut,
Is it true?
So also is it
Not true, I have
Not forgotten you.
In between birth and death,
I act as a hero.v

The true cost of war- not the glamor at the grave or in the movies or parades. Watching someone die next to you, a stranger or friend, ripped apart or mutilated. Watching as shock takes over from blood loss, the stare you wont see other than someone in the moment of a brutal death a life taken. That is war. The soul afterwards trying to survive a different life in civilized society. ~LArry

This is from me to you for someone very special to me whom we have filled in each others souls. Happy Thanksgiving -- ~LArry

This is from me to you for someone very special to me whom we have filled in each others souls.

Those whom I have met to date and have discarded me, you have also been discarded. Those who seek with fun, humility, emotion, and Love are always welcome.~LArry (Especially Fun) *snickers*
Those Winter Sundays - For my children when you start to think for your selves, and not from her or them.

Those Winter Sundays -- Sundays too my father got up early
and put his clothes on in the blueblack cold,
then with cracked hands that ached

Thought you were barricading yourself in. Then saw it was a barricade of Love. ~LArry - dedicated to Fee & Jackie

To My Mother

By Robert Louis Stevenson

You too, my mother, read my rhymes

For love of unforgotten times,

And you may chance to hear once more

The little feet along the floor.

To My Mother

By Robert Louis Stevenson

To Paulina from Eirini's Lambertville NJ. What I think of you. ~LArry

A Shield of Steel, A Heart of Gold,
A woman stands, her voice so bold,
When shadows fall, and doubt takes hold,
She'll face the storm, a story…

To some really good friends of mine, Death protects you, until you are ready. For some. ~LArry
