I'm a blue jean t-shirt kind of guy
***************************************************************************************
Right now I'm only on here to read the poetry and hang out with a few of the friends I've met in the poetry forum. It wouldn't be fair to you to even start a fire. I've got fall cleanups coming up and for the next 6 weeks, will be working 7 days a week of dawn till dusk. But of all you pretty babes that have dropped a picture off, I'm gonna be a callin at your door. Get ready cause I'm going to take only one of you on a ride but only if you ain't afraid to have fun again. I ain't got much money, but that don't even matter. I'm gonna surf some clouds and I'm saving a puffy one for you. So when I ring your doorbell, listen to the chime cause we're gonna have one hell of a time. We are gonna eat life up...now don't be so cynical, cause I'm talking a lot of bravado. Well the best things in life are free, they happen instantly and sweet time finally rides on our side.......

One more thing, I know it isn't much info to go on so if you REALLY want to know all about my history, my personality and how I think, well just scroll this page down and at the bottom you will see forum post. Click on one of them. I have a thread in the poetry forums called "Short Poems [I guess}". I've got about 22 pages of junk I pass off as poetry. If you are really bored go ahead and read it. Between all the lines of junk you might find a little about my personality. WELL YOU SHOULD!!! Cause I don't hold much back about myself. Very transparent that way....Bye

A poem I wrote to go with pictures at top....


.........Horseshoe Bay..........

i combed the shores of lake huron
looking for that one special stone
that bathed in centuries of moonlight and sun
different from all the rest, my chosen one.
hour upon hour i walked the beach
picking a few here and there
but discarding all within my reach
including wasted thoughts, i became aware.
hearing the gentle swish of the water
and the loons call in horseshoe bay
the warbler's whistle in the cedars
and the distant shriek of the osprey.
the white limestone boulders
covered with blackened algae
rest on the cambrian shoulders
carved by the glaciers slowly.
i followed the sandpiper's pencil trail
who skittered ahead with their twiggy legs
stopping to poke at the sand for a meal
under a young blue sky of no age.
cormorants flew just above the water's wrinkles
as a companion sun and the huron's breeze
sprayed glitter on the wave caps that twinkled
at the sleeping stars of night's fantasies.
and there among the million stones
i found a black rock with a hint of fire red
and inside the core of the rock; my thoughts
alone
of the natural way of life hidden in my head.


Some more poems...Hey it's free

.....Open The Wound.....

i lost my best friend
to a freak accident
we shared a bond
of being army vets
after he died my emotions i held
deep down inside
my heart had a weld
they buried him with full honors
at a grave in Fort Custer
i tried to stand
but hardly could muster
the Honor Guards held up their rifles
and the shots were fired
the sound pierced my guts
and finally i cried

Mario
I wasn't home that day
when you stopped by
Mom told you
I was down town
playin' pool
and it's a sad shame
that me and moe
sold them bloody rocks
at school
I can't imagine
what it was like
to crawl 200 yards
to Kilgore Road
after the train
cut off your leg
below the knee
It's ironic
how you were in the attic
with Judy
my first girl friend
kissing her
and looking at the different
wooden legs
her ol' man stored
after world war two
Mario did you see the heat waves rise
above the stones
Did you see the monarch butterfly poached
on the milkpod of orange
as you kept your self from going into shock
Mario
we sold all those bloody rocks
me and moe
and we didn't give you a dime

Let's meet for coffee or breakfast. Let's have fun and enjoy the moment, that's alright if there is no chemistry, we can still have a nice breakfast. No expectations. Please be within 3 years of the picture posted on profile. :)
