heard of them. my keyboard has issues when it comes to capitalization; apparently so do you.

Thank you ecargo. and you too are correct: the syntax isn't clear. I need to slow down and remember the basics I think.
Thanks again.

you're right I think "deeper pockets" may have flowed better.
Thank you.

pete-she had enjoyed touching him and did so in an almost unconcious manner. he on the other hand thought each touch held a hidden agenda; he told her to stop touching him so much...so she did.
one of my biggest problems writing is dropping the reader into the middle of the unknown assuming clarity when often there is none. Thanks for you thoughts, Pete

You're right about all..I'm still in too much of a hurry to finish and not fleshing the piece out. Thanks for the input, Dovina.

I thank you for your suggestions and comments.
As for my younger self...no, she didn't have a clue :>)!

I'm feeling dense...I'm sorry I don't get what you mean.

Thank you, Dovina...I wrote this piece just before I ventured back out into the "dating" world again after a good decade's abscence. And who I percieved myself to be at 40 compared to myself at 50 seemed to be 2 entirely different animals.

Oops...I meant sometimes I hurry a poem along instead of just letting IT finish "cooking" in it's own good time. Sorry bout that.

Thanks for the suggestions. Sometimes I hurry a poem along instead of just letting finish cooking in it's own good time.
Thanks again

Thanks, Paul S, I appreciate your comments.

thanks and you're right about the title. I didn't put much thought into it.

thank you!

Thanks for your comments, Dovina. I admit punctuation and I aren't the best of friends.

actually it wasn't the first line that caught my interest it was liine 2 & 3. . .both are keepers. The last line left me feeling like "what? is that all there is?"
