Tom

Tom

A man who's faith is stronger than reason
Who's seen hardships, pain, and strife
He's now old enough to realize
that they're only part of life.

He's tried to put his history
into a few choice words
but to most he stays a mystery
I'd bet at least two thirds.

I prefer to keep an open mind,....but not so much that my brains fall out.- Carl Sagan
Your brain is like an umbrella. It only works when it's open- Someone Smart

Thanks Bags for the kind thoughts. Yes, a mystery is only mysterious as long as it is truly a mystery... :mrgreen:

:angel: , Moonflower and last, but never least, Duchess, thank you for your kind comments to sir Bags. I have been having a rather dry time lately, with few words moistening the ink to allow it to flow, but, with the rainy season starting, hopefully that will change soon.. :computer: :wink:

:hugs:
