i saw this on tv at work and just cried my eyes out!!!!

We dallied under
Vine maples and sapling alders
Searched for lady slippers
But instead
Found blackberry riots and
Desiccated branches
An old skid road
Brought ghost ferns and
Hollows filled with
Skunk cabbage
While waves wrapped
Intricate lacings of weeds
'Round mule spinners
His cyanotic eyes
Were hard enough to make
The sun turn tail and
Tender enough to attract me
To his world of illusion

Eman--I think its spelled BAWLING...balling has such a different meaning than what I think you meant.
Buttercup thank you for sharing that with us. Having been in that position before and seeing my sons when I came back from Kosovo, I fully understood that fathers feelings. My eyes were quite watery after watching the clip...a very good start to my Monday morn. Thank you."Sometimes people need a little help. Sometimes people need to be forgiven.

Close to my old Stomping grounds. Very touching. Guessing from the Uniform that he's Not a Sailor. He may be a squid, but he's a Corpman. In my book, that puts him up there with the rest of the Grunts and Groundpounders.
Glad he could do that for his boy."Where's your towel Arthur?" -Ford Prefect
