Voices

A loving voice -
It reaches afar,
It plumbs the depths,
It shoots for a star.
At times it's tiny,
At times it's careful,
But more that this -
It's often prayerful.

An angry voice -
It goes far too,
It cracks like a whip
To lash friend, foe, and you.

the old ones the homing did come back
and words ..yes come back
last line was it
the kicker....

knew the word gunslingers
barely any went to their funerals
most of obligation
they have nice coffees there
the women get dressed up
nice....love formal occasions
the encouragers packed
more women...man gang
club crowd showing respect
genuine then obligatory
but we cut our own paths
and sometimes the bad worders
cant help it...something painful
happened to them

oh gotta go
bunnies calling me

thank u

You have a way of expressing yourself so that I can understand without having to search for the meaning or make up my own. ~ Geezer.
