Fly not from heaven but fall as there will be one here waiting to catch you when you get here.

Hope all is well (((Jimmy)))

Thank you all for dropping in and understanding. Your encouraging words are so appreciated!

I am in agreement my friend! I would love to have all of those things that I mentioned as well but they are just a bonus to the real thing that I desire so much. If people would take the time to read my profile they would see that this poem is not asking for anything more or less than the daisies that life has to offer.

Seeing you swagger like the Duke would make me giggle and that would be a nice thing, knowing you are a sweet man that is doing it just for that reason would warm my heart.

My thanks to all of you my dearest friends!!!

I was in a funk the other day and this is what came of it... It felt good to just get the questions out.

I bleed just to know
That I am alive
Independently strong
Not part of the hive

Not steel and mechanics
Just flesh and bone
Existing with others
Yet ultimately alone

My body grows older
Being ravaged by time
Growing up’s not an option
It’s a hideous crime

You call this world normal
I say it’s insane
Living to work, working to live
How cruelly mundane

We all bide our time
Waiting for the change
Do you think in our lifetime
It will be in range

Begging and pleading
We hang onto hope
But I’ve found a new way
With all I can cope

Living for me
In this “abnormal” way
Is something that’s letting
My sanity stay

I walk around bare
My soul you can see
If you can get past
The outer shell of me

I am still a person
The same one you know
It is just some skin
I more easily show

I’m standing here now
With no place to hide
Looking forward to life
And the rest of the ride

Can anger
be productive?

Could tears
be seductive?

Can pain
bring a smile?

Should sorrow
last a while?

Can frustration
be alright?

Would blind furry
ever give sight?

Can rage
deliver you?

Will peace
ever be true?

I'm not looking
for a man
with the
John Wayne
swagger

Or that wild
pretty boy
with a mirror
who is a
bragger

I don't need
the man
shooting for
Donald Trump's
money

He doesn't even
have to be
comical or
side splittingly
funny

I'm not interested
in a man
because of his
Brad Pitt
looks

And I surely
won't hold it
against him
if he doesn't read
books

I just want
a man
that holds me
so gently
tight

And wants me
to be there
right at his side
be it day or
night

I so dearly want
the one man
that loves me
with all of his
heart

And wants me
to be there
through good and bad
together each day we
start

The man
that will
be there
for the rest of my
life

And say
I love you
and I'm so glad
that you are my
wife

I bleed just to know
That I am alive
Independently strong
Not part of the hive

Not steel and mechanics
Just flesh and bone
Existing with others
Yet ultimately alone

My body grows older
Being ravaged by time
Growing up’s not an option
It’s a hideous crime

You call this world normal
I say it’s insane
Living to work, working to live
How cruelly mundane

We all bide our time
Waiting for the change
Do you think in our lifetime
It will be in range

Begging and pleading
We hang onto hope
But I’ve found a new way
With all I can cope

Living for me
In this “abnormal” way
Is something that’s letting
My sanity stay

I walk around bare
My soul you can see
If you can get past
The outer shell of me

I am still a person
The same one you know
It is just some skin
I more easily show

I’m standing here now
With no place to hide
Looking forward to life
And the rest of the ride

Hi Mom

Show off that new ink!!! I want to see...

Hope all is well!

Nah Pancakes, we are from IA. If you check out my profile there is a link there to some poems I have written about him... if you're interested.

Here's to all of you!!!

I have 11 now and they all have meaning to me...

1. the one on my neck is obvious
2. chocolate chip on my shoulder... chip on my shoulder ;)
3. yosemite sam on my... ummmm nevermind... my alter ego
4. crying heart over my heart... hard life and hard times then
5. band of flowers around arm... didn't want barbed wire and i drew it
6. heart and flowers above #5... life a little better
7. family crest on my shoulderblade... need to explain?
8. face, skull, crystal ball on other shoulderblade... past, present, and future
9. interlocked hearts right calf... me and special someone
10. teddybear on left calf... my daughter drew it and asked me to
11. roses on right leg... reminder to take time to stop and smell the roses

Getting ready for number 12 and it will be this


"Someday everything will
all make perfect sense
so for now, laugh at the0
confusion, smile through the tears,
and keep reminding yourself
that everything happens
for a reason"

Will go on back of right calf and it is something that I try to remember daily and live by so why not?

Hope you're all having a great day!!


GOT INK?!


BTW... i haven't had the chance to be on much lately and I have to go to work but I will try to check out the links and stuff soon and respond when I do.

OMG James!!! I sit here now with tears streaming down my face and respect filling my heart!!

I can never thank you enough for these words and sentiments that have touched me so deeply. You have truly captured my brother...

Thank you for showing your respect and being such a wonderful friend.

Hi Silvercloud! I agree about the showing first hand so others are aware as I'm inked head to toe and obviously I'm still going, this is number 11, but I'm also not going to let what they think stop me. I love the ink on men and women and if the person that is interested doesn't like it then they aren't the right person for me.
