TRAVELS WITH CHARLIE, WHO WOULD BE 12




As ever, just out of reach…

you wanted from this life, even so?
I did.
And what did you want?
To call myself beloved, to feel myself
beloved on the earth.”

Out here on this highway the rules are still the same
Back roads never carry you where you want 'em to
They leave you standin' there with them ol'

Have no fear
The monster’s gone
He's on the run and your daddy's here…"

Thanks, everyone, very sincerely.

And, Sal, your news is not only completely wonderful, but I really like the coincidence as well. I didn't even think about it until you mentioned it here. I can't wait to meet the little fella.

I'm sorry I missed this post, Dennis.

I sometimes think about you and Charlie even when you don't post about him.

All the love in the world,

Bill
