I think some gremlins have got in here......Delmardeb did the same thing a post later......i was starting to wonder if my posts were printing.....(better check i got enuf ink)........lol

anyway, we still got two going here.......the one Lucise started and the one Deb started.......

here we go.......

Ennis checked out Jack's boots, but found shirts instead
The room had a window, a closet, and Jacks childhood bed.
He pressed the shirts against his heart



and the other one.....

"Naw, I'm too busy these days," he said
So get that notion out of your head
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

k, back on track.. :P
Continuing with the 2 limericks..





Ennis checked out Jack's boots, but found shirts instead
The room had a window, a closet, and Jacks childhood bed.
He pressed the shirts against his heart;
he felt like they had never been apart






"Naw, I'm too busy these days," he said
"So get that notion out of your head."
Alma Junior heaved a sad sigh

Ennis checked out Jack's boots, but found shirts instead
The room had a window, a closet, and Jacks childhood bed.
He pressed the shirts against his heart;
he felt like they had never been apart
And he thought back over the the things unsaid.


"Naw, I'm too busy these days," he said
"So get that notion out of your head."
Alma Junior heaved a sad sigh
Held back tears so she wouldn't cry

"Naw, I'm too busy these days," he said
"So get that notion out of your head."
Alma Junior heaved a sad sigh
Held back tears so she wouldn't cry
Suddenly Ennis said, "I'd rather be with you instead!"








For how long? As long as we can ride it; ain't no reins on this one.

Jack wore a black hat and Ennis' hat was white

Jack wore a black hat and Ennis' hat was white
The lives they lived were both dark and light.

The lives they lived were both dark and light.
Yet Brokeback was sweet home,
a common place to love, to roam..

a common place to love, to roam..
And love they did during the day and at night.
