Laments Of An Old Smoker Jul 14, 2007

Cough wheeze cough
Another quick puff
Before that hacking rhapsody
Recommences cutting my high short

I love the way
Smokes swirls and spirals
Creating images of ladies
Romanced I in my debonair youth

Now stained gums teeth and fingers
None would cast glance my way
I reek of stale tobacco
Lost in laments of an old smoker

You Are Welcomed Warmly

I see you've found yourself suddenly here amidst the poetic scribbles of my rambling mind often incoherent to the general you and only understood by myself.

If you find that my words have touched you, then indeed my journey of words has met its objective ... I wish to be able to let you the unknown reader experience my rollercoaster existence with the stringing of words.

It is my sincere hope that you will come many times again and leave your comments and feedback for I am only a writer here in the anonymity of the internet, harbouring a burning desire to someday hold my words bound within pages in the bookstores of the world ...

Perhaps dreams keeps us going - I intend to try perhaps to turn mine into some reality .. thank you for stopping by...
