Silver . . .

. . . tongued (the next long period???) and misguided too??

(from http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/donald-trump-mizzou-protests-are-disgraceful-n462186)
". . . "I think it's disgusting," Donald Trump said in an interview on Fox Business Network. . ."I think the two people that resigned are weak, ineffective people," he added, referring to University of Missouri president Tim Wolfe and chancellor R. Bowen Loftin, who both announced on Monday that they would step aside under pressure. "I think that when they resigned, they set something in motion that's gonna be a disaster for the next long period of time.". . ."

Hand . . .

. . . of God?

(from http://www.thepearlofsenecalake.com/blog/2011/07/finger-lakes-folklore)
". . . There are many stories/myths as to how the Finger Lakes of New York State came to be. I particularly like the old Indian story that when God create the world, He rested on the seventh day and placed his hand on what would become the Finger Lakes. His handprint became one of the most beautiful lands ever created. . . geologist tells us a different story. There are actually eleven finger-shaped lakes in upper New York State that were formed when the glaciers receded at the end of the last ice age. . ."

Heard Somebody . . .

. . . say
They overheard you
Just the other day
A simple word
About the way we get along
If only I were sure
Of the semantics
Having doubts 'cause I'm
One hopeless romantic
Could it be
You're slipping away from me

What will I do
If what I'm thinking is true
And you want to be
Really free of me
I won't last very long
Very far from your heart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts.

Heard somebody say
They thought they saw you
Walking in their way
You were not alone
They said he didn't look like
Thinking to myself
Must be mistaken
Try not to believe
but still badly shaken
Why would you
Deceive me in things you do

So many years
Sharing our laughter and tears
Lasted very long
Maybe I was wrong
Not to ask you
Why you feel
We've drifted apart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts

Are my sources reliable
Wait and see
Wait and see
Is my psyche too pliable
It could be
It could be

If somebody said
The sky was falling
Would you believe it's true
And change your direction
From spinning round
When it hits the ground
That's just not true
Any believers are few
When you've seen it all
It could never fall

Any more than
I think you could
Tear us apart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts

Warming? . . .

There are few things that I dislike as much as . . .

News stories about pop culture ‘celebrities’ that have something either brilliant, hilarious, insightful or emotion-laden to say accompanied by headlines using words like “shares” and “heartwarming”.

Wind . . .

The response from my esteemed representative in Washington DC to my rant about the commissioning of a bust of Dick Cheney to be placed in the United States Capitol and my urgings to refrain from memorializing a greedy, sanctimonious crook and war criminal with my tax dollars . . .

Revisiting . . .

. . . Available . . .

Everything really is negotiable
Though your initial look may betray
So big and frig
owhtening they may appear
Your dedication and intellect take the day

There's one thing you have to remember
You mean so much to me
That's one certainty
When concerns become burdens
Please know I'm the one you need to see
I will always be available
No matter how far life removes you from me

There's no necessity for extreme bravery
All your good qualities I admire
There's no embarrassment and there's no shame
If you accept someone's helping hand when you tire

There's one thing you have to remember
You mean so much to me
That's one certainty
When concerns become burdens
Please know I'm the one you need to see
I will always be available
No matter how far life removes you from me

Any other time
Any other place
Nothing between us will be any different
You don't have to hide
Feelings deep inside
I'm here to help you so please let me try

You may not understand
You may not care
I know you'll realize what's to bear
I always felt that my responsibility
Is to make sure you find happiness anywhere

There's one thing you have to remember
You mean so much to me
That's one certainty
When concerns become burdens
Please know I'm the one you need to see
I will always be available
No matter how far life removes you from me
