Lynne:
I didn't know there were poems here - shows what I know.  I'll be back after work to catch up, but I think Night Visitor is beautiful (and hot!).  And more Melissa Etheridge!  What a nice way to start the day.

Brokeback_Dev:
This is gonna be a great day.  Love your poems

CellarDweller:
I'm back, but Tru (ShakesTheGround) has asked me to post this.


Last night, I sent him a PM saying that I was up for a challenge, to send me a topic, and I would write a poem about it.

He replied today at 9:30, with this topic.

"Two men on a park bench, feeding the birds".


I sent him a reply not long after, and this was the response.  He really loved and as per his request, here it is.












And Feed The Birds

--------------------------------------



What day is it today
I wonder
As I sit with my friend
And feed the birds

I look at my clothes
And laugh to myself
All dressed up, Sunday best
And no place to go

Every day we come
My friend and I
And sit at this bench
And feed the birds

Living life at a snail’s pace
And no desire to change it
Truth be told
No desire for much of anything

Polite conversation
And some drags on our cigars
And we share some laughs
And feed the birds

Missing our wives
Who have gone on to God
And left us alone
All we have is each other

So we keep each other company
And lean on each other
Together killing time
And we feed the birds
