   You are forgiven.  I find Texans and their arrogance amusing.  Have you ever noticed coming from La. that they post the distance to El Paso just so you can see how big the state is?  ha

Gez, I'm way behind on reading but I had to stop long enough to let Terry know his "First Insight" was a good read.  The night is slow I just might catch up now.

Lots of good stuff here and I'm still not done.<BR>
<BR>
Mist- normally I don't comment on your stuff because I feel it would be nepotism BUT - I did find "There is a Aching" and "Lagoon Fantasy" interesting reads.<BR>
<BR>
Applause from my seat to "First Insight" by Terry "Oh Lonesome Me" by Nikki, "I miss you" by Angel (I also smiled reading "Covering Tracks", "Silent Shadow" by Jenna and last but not least, the one Megs wrote "to him" out there where ever he is.  <BR>
<BR>
There are still 2 pages of titles to catch up on.  Why don't you all take a couple of days off and let me catch up?

<BR>
Misti~"We got a crazeeeeee kinda love", this one made me *SMILE* i can relate so well...<BR>
<BR>
Gala~"Missed you by inches", was powerful in meaning and very well written.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>

Wow guys,<BR>
<BR>
May was amazing, but what a start to june...<BR>
It will take me a while to get caught up as I am reading what catches my eye first. Here goes....<BR>
<BR>
Kevin; All the road poems are real heart songs. I especially liked 'Mist', 'Heartwood', and 'Summer of Love'. You are a word artist my friend.<BR>
<BR>
Gala; Zero to Sixty...wow, I could feel the backdraft from that one. And 'Missed You By Inches' was a powerful read.<BR>
<BR>
Guppy; All your latest is great. My favorite I think is either 'This Night' or 'with healthy conscience'. But boy is 'here's mud in you i' a great read.<BR>
<BR>
Chris, Misti; you both write wonderful stuff. you have this synergy thing bouncing back and forth. But Misti, 'Infinite Gold' is something very special.<BR>
<BR>
Brandi; 'Fild of Flowes' is utterly amazing and enchanted my heart. You are a very good young poet!<BR>
<BR>
Dee; Your art is made for poetry. 'Art Appreciation' has an erotic grace and style. Kudos to you  and Gala. And 'we sleep in spoons'is beautiful.<BR>
<BR>
Paul; 'Putty in my hands' is very good. We all have regrets like that buried in the heart...<BR>
<BR>
Nikki; 'No Feelings' is very sharp writing. Too good in fact. It captures temporary despair too well. I'm sending ya  a whole box of lifesavers....<BR>
<BR>
more later when I can get some real work done. But I can't help it...my heart is full of love and I wanted to read all you guys' beautiful poetry instead of work this morning. thanks to all who compliment my meager attempts at poetry...it ain't always good, but its always from my heart...<BR>

While I know that I'm a "senior citizen" by blender standards, I have one timy bit of wisdom to offer the guys out there---particularly the married ones.<BR>
<BR>
Find a copy of the video "Shirley Valentine"...sit down,pay attention, and watch it. Parts are funny....all of it is important...stuff your lady would never dream of saying---but probably feels.<BR>
<BR>
Think you're bored? Stressed? Feeling trapped? Well guys, it cuts both ways...catch the flick---and maybe get her back before she's too far away to reach...

In the same spirit as gala, I will offer a relationship pick of my own...<BR>
<BR>
'Playing By Heart'..ensemble cast, Sean Connery, Gillian Anderson, et al., but this is the movie where I fell in love with Angelina Jolie. It is heartbreaking, sad, happy and ultimately uplifting. A good take on the power of real love...<BR>
