So sorry for the long silence. This platform is no longer writer friendly. I am in the process of transitioning to word press.com
here is why:
I can't make a paragraph or a space without putting a photo. Any formatting from a cut and paste is lost.

Someday, it’ll all be different
but will I be around?
The pessimism of my fathers
is a hard thing to live down.
But in your blue eyes,
under these blue skies
is the only peace I’ve found.
Someday, it’ll all be different.
Then we’ll go to town.
Someday we’ll have a big house with
a couple of cats and a dog.
A garden for a front yard,
in the backyard we’ll keep hogs.
We’ll sing songs at the fire side
by Bob Dylan and
Jackson Browne.
Someday it’ll all be different
an’ we’ll go out on the town.
Someday there’ll be no bigots.
No racism, no more war!
Someday we’ll have a plenty
that’s better worth living for.
The lion and lamb
will both shake hands
with silence the only sound.
Some day everything will be different.
Then we’ll go to town.
Someday, the stars will line up
and the moon will light the way.
When waters of the oceans
along the shoreline stay.
Then honey bees,
and butterflies
come back to save the day.
An’ everything will be different
That’s all I have to say.
But I still love you all. Thanks for checking in on me. Talk soon.
