--love struck--

   i was thinking about things in a
quiet place today, and this came to mind--


     when someone really reaches you,
gets you, and still wants you, above all
others...love has struck--
    a happy blow, that heals wounds,
instead of creating them, a bolt of joy,
that runs deep...and lasts forever--

                             --love john--

--prayer request--

    last sundays prayer request, and
question for the pastor--

   prayer request--
please say a prayer for my neighbors,
as they see me in a way i do not, when
i'm away from the mirror each day--

                     --best wishes to all--

   question--
why... all the time, everyday, sometimes
answered, sometimes not, the only
question...for all time--

--happy birthday --

  --best wishes to--  "Njang28612"    :o)

--in the end--

   wrote this after i paid my
tab...(no kidding)

   the sum,
the grand total, happily ever
after--
   touchdown, small-town
hero makes good... it's the right
ending for a hero in a bad
situation--
   it's not what happens, all too often,
making us cheer that much louder
when it does--
 --here's to making it...ooh-rah--

                               --best wishes--

--getting checked out--

    i was in a bar finding the
bottom of a few drinks, when
this came to me--

getting "checked out"...
   an eerie feeling, like in a
scary movie, totally unaware
of your situation, until you
get the sinking feeling your
"man-candy", in a room full
of sweet-tooths...a modest mans
total panic situation--
  man up, and go down smiling,
most girls are gentle...   :o)

--the lead climber must not fall--

    i was getting myself squared away
this morning, and an old adventure came
to mind, kind of a saab story...


the north face,
    i reached the top, paused
 for a moment, and repelled down,
tethered to a friend(i wouldn't
know how tightly for many years)--
   those that climb this way aren't
conquering a mountain, or a fear
of falling, but over-coming trust
issues, and a fear of close connections--
   yes, these climbers sometimes fall,
not one, but two...together, or not at all--

--good hands, good heart, much love--

                                --best wishes--

--paris--

   mon cher,
j'ai offert ma vie 'a la le'gion,
mais ils ne l'auraient pas--
  sur le train je vous ai donne'
mon coeur, mais le destin ne
l'auraiat pas non plus...
  votre gentillesse et baisers
au revoir sont toujours sur
mes joues quelquefois--
  nous aurons toujours paris--

                    --john--
