Herd Scene

Clad in garb, ermine trimmed and cerise
Comes a hirsute Caucasian, obese
Levitates through the night
Ungulates in full flight
I’m not drunk so don’t call the police.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.

Hey Steve,

Just wanted to let you know that the swim trunks are put away for the winter and the flames tips in the BBQ pit keep breaking off when they come in contact with the grill.

It was 20 last night with 15mph winds for a nice toasty 8 degrees with the wind chill factor. Tonight it will be 16 or 17 degrees and we may dip into the negative numbers with the wind chill figured in. My tropicals and cactii are holding on for dear life (literally and physically). It ain't spos'd t'get that cold down her in the South!

One more:

With his seasonal visit complete
Santa sits at the pole with his feet
In an old wooden pail,
With his suit on a nail
Airing out from the smell
Of the eight reindeer tail.
He looks tired and frail
As he tries to compel
Missus Claus to fix something to eat.

Perhaps that is worth a lump of coal.

Larry
