How true the priest be blessed too

Once I read a last summary
by a priest ere he died

he had said somewhat like this

I have preached god's wisdom
all my life
in his everlasting presence
to keep and help you maintain
your sanity
but now that I too am going
I have yet to come across
who can look after the blood pressure
of 7.5 billion or so (then maybe one less)

but now that I am about to go
I'd love to bless you too
Remember me
only after I have left you
praise me
don't, curse me
I had a family to look after
like all of you

Darn it Loved.

This is a poem, not a blog. You should post your poems as poems and your blogs as blogs.

You're making me nuts, but then... you always have.

So you are using a loophole.

You're cheating. Bad girl. You'll set a bad example.
One poem a day is not a strict rule, but rather an issue of honor. We restrain ourselves willingly, not because of a rule. We want to give other poets a chance to stay at the top of the list longer, but those who post multiple times a day push those who may be new down the list where they are not noticed.
Do you see my point?

WES, in defence of Lovedly...

I wrote a poem and posted it as a blog because a blog is the place to post serious matters. If presented as a poem only, the content doesn't lead to truly thinking about it. If written in prose, few
will get thru the first sentence, And since few read me, I am hoping a BLOG will elicit a better response.
