sheer coinkidink

tho' the thought's
admittedly thought

altogether odd,

and out of sync
I ride roughshod---

thus so I'm told
by those
more self-controlled---

whenever human nature
mimics god's,
it's sheer coinkidink,

I lightly think,
I pen in ink

(coinkidink - american
slang for coincidence)

"I lightly think, I pen in ink" These two lines describe your writing perfectly. You tackle subjects with a tone that always seems tongue-in-cheek, making your reader simultaneously smile and consider themes on a deeper level. It's a style I've come to greatly enjoy - and one I will never master! My best, Ronda

Wow, Ronda!

How nicely you put it. Flattered, I am. Not flustered, at least not yet, but, yes, flattered. Thanx, Chuck

Hi Chuck...

Ronda is right... she puts it so eloquently, but she said what I feel about your writing too... I love how you are always saying something that is not so hidden that I can't figuire it out... the only degrees I hold are in the school of hard knocks. so when I can't understand what the writer is saying, sadly it happens often, it makes it folly for me to read... and very hard to comment on.. just wanted to say I look forward to reading your writes.. Richard

Thanx

And I appreciate you, too ... and your writings born of hard knocks---and this comment above in particular. Chuck
