Paying homage to my AD Family....well sort of

@Ripper...No, no biting your head off LOL! but when you feel the urge, add a little to the creative writing! I can turn a decent sentence from time to time, but I need to be in the mood (actually, its a total lack of self discipline on my part).

You know, putting a well constructed sentence together is only the smallest part of writing well, in my humble opinion. I'm helping a young woman at the office. She's really quite amazing. She's not terribly well educated. She speaks with very thick ebonics but, unfortunately, it's all she knows. Her grammar is atrocious and her spelling is worse. I'm helping her with her grammar, spelling, usage etc. She loves to write and I'm helping her with that as well.

She can create such beautiful story lines, unusual plots with even more unusual twists and turns. Lord, she will prove to be one hell of a writer once the mundane and fundamental becomes, well, mundane and fundamental LOL!

So, boys and girls, write and write and write!

@Ireland ... yes, it is so unlike me to be all piss and vinaigre (How do you spell that in english?) ... thought I'd give kurmudgeonery a try.

 

Vinegar. You nailed piss. LOL

@Maxburn ... damn buddy, I just saw your last poem...every word of it as true as it is awesome. I wish I had your skill. I'll try again sometime in the near future but for the moment, let me recite one by Ogden Nash that has nothing to do with AD:

[bold] The Ostrich

The Ostrich roams the great Sahara
Its legs are long; its neck is narrah.
And with those tall and spindly legs,
I hope it sits when it lays eggs.[/bold]

Good night all, Gerry is going to bed early tonite!

 

Maxburn, excellent as always!

Gerry1, wonder how many of the youngsters here know where that "pistol" quote came from?? LOL

Jamz, hope you are doing okay. I miss your poems and wicked sense of humor. Bet you are checking out the newly restored James Bond series? Wow, took 2 1/2 years, 600 Apple computers, and 60 trillion computations.

Auslander is Crazy About Her

I'm so Crazy about her,
I think of her night and day,
ooh yeah,
her baby-blue eyes,
her godly brown locks,
The best damn body,

that any guy would want,
to get with,
I'm a bunch of nerves,
no style, no figures,
just a small town boy,

just looking for some love,
and a mind that never quits,
and a heart of gold,
but you can't that,
by stand there alone,
and so lonely.

So what are you doing,
over there playing with your hair,
waiting to be rescued,
and swept off your feet,
by your prince in shinning armor,
and on a white horse,

Or are you going to sit on that rock,
so neatly with your legs crossed,
or do I have to make the first move,
persuade you to take a dip in my love pool,

Chorus: Crazy About Her,
Well it Not Stop,
Crazy About Her,
She Makes My Heart flutter,
Crazy About Her,

You look so lovely,
let me pick this flower up,
and give it to you,
and make you smile so big,

smile like you used to,
now here I go,
bringing her happiness you can see,
she’s so beautiful,
it was love at first site,

Chorus: Crazy About Her,
Well it Not Stop,
Crazy About Her,
She Makes My Heart flutter,
Crazy About Her,

She smiles at me,
and tells me that I'm sweet,
I get a warm feeling,
a feeling that wants to now more about her,

she placed her hand on my cheek,
and she looked into my eyes,
but her eyes looked into my soul,

a wild sensation,
was I in love? ,
or was I just insane?
I can feel her fears,
and taste her passions,

Chorus: Crazy About Her,
Well it Not Stop,
Crazy About Her,
She Makes My Heart flutter,
Crazy About Her,

I'll take her hand,
and make her happy tonight,
a dinner,
a night of passion that won't die,

Crazy about her,
Yes I am,
Crazy About Her,
make it last forever,
Crazy About Her,
I Want To Make Her Mine,

THE BLESSINGS OF MUSIC

Music is a gift that feels our heart each day
The blessings of music heal our souls each day
Music relieves the stress in our daily lives
Music is soothing to our ears
The blessings of music heal the sick and comfort the sick also
The blessings of music

It is wonderful to hear
When somebody is playing something for every one to listen
His giving you his gift of music to you and others
And to you also God
The blessings of music
Music is powerful
And has a great impact in everybody’s lives
The Blessings of music
Music is universal
The Blessings of music
You can hear the music being played from far away
Every song is special
Every song has a different meaning and different words

WHY?
There is something I always wanted to know.
Why did they have to go?
I have met many people in my travels thru life.
Some were put there to help, some were there to increase my strife.
The special ones, the ones who really affected my soul.
I always wondered, was altering my life their only goal?
Were they put there in some genetic plan?
To alter my fate, maybe even that of man?
For who knows what will influence us the most?
A real live human being, or thoughts of a ghost?
So many questions I have about those I knew,
Those who no longer live amongst me, and you.
Some were like bright candles whose flames lit up the night.
Some were cut down too early without a chance to fight.
There must be a master plan,
By someone very grand,
To use these special people, maybe on another planet.
Instead of leaving behind only a name carved in granite.
And some stray thoughts are left behind,
Incased in the remains of a very deranged mind.
So I say to all who can hear,
Be very nice to the ones you hold dear.
It is better to express now how you feel,
When they are alive, and their presence is real.
Ghosts can be real, and live in your head,
When your thoughts go back to someone who’s dead.
I try to go thru life as best I can,
Trying often to help my fellow man.
And yet I am a troubled soul,
My life almost drained like an empty bowl.
Often I think of my dead girlfriend and want to cry,
And I ask myself, and God.... WHY?
