Love in 160 Bites, Part 1



There was this old dude from Duluth

A bit grozzled and long in the tooth

He looked in the mirror

And shuddered in horror

And thought: when did I lose all my youth?

  6. Brian: Yup. Sorry. Stay tuned.

    MM: Thanks for visiting.

    Katherine: A mini-series for sure. And I share your empathy with the Old Dude. Like a vampire, I'm avoiding mirrors these days.

    Mary: You're first to mention that it was a limerick. I was thinking I'd not succeeded with that part. Thanks!

    Jingle: Thanks. Stay tuned.

  8. Reminds me of a lecture by Ram Dass. He held up his age-grizzled hand and said, "Look at this thing. Just look. All wrinkled and aged. If I thought that was me, I'd be horrified."
