    The Golden Days! WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? I'm putting the brakes on. This is just a cute little poem nothing personal ment. Certainly nothing to look forward to.

    THE GOOLDEN DAYS

    They call it the golden days
    Why I am not sure
    I'm still waiting for my pot
    I am sure they must mean
    I'm waiting for my pot of gold
    I think it is a pot alright
    Of a different sort 
    Good old Arthur came to see me
    He knows not when to leave
    Invades my territory
    Torments me when I sleep
    I'm going to a warmer climate
    Good old arthur he's following me
    I can't get my mind to work
    It used to be so bright
    I'd stand at attention but 
    My backs a little bent
    My toes go with the flow
    Out the sides of my shoes
    There is a puddle by the toilet
    I know the dog must have done it
    I'll put depends on him
    Now I lay me down to sleep
    In the hopes I will awake
    Soon I know my soul  he wants to take
    For now I am waiting for the golden days
    While looking in my change purse for the gold
    Somebody  must have took it

    Everybody wants to get into the act...As Jimmy Durante would say...I like the idea of putting two "O's" in gold...that was cute....

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
