Who Loves You Baby

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Who Loves You Baby
#9
It would not be fair to you
To fall for a guy like me
You are young and full of life
And I am over the hill
You deserve someone better
Than a stupid fool like me
So just stay with who you have
And enjoy the life you share
As long as you are honest
And open with each other
I’m sure that you’ll  be happy
Just remember who loves you
#10
“Live Long And Prosper”
P.s.“Live long and prosper”
Are words Spock immortalized
For all us Trekkies
#11
P.p.s.s.An Arabian Poem
If there were such a thing as genies
And wishes really could come true
I would only need a SINGLE wish
Because I’d simply wish for you

About this poem

This was the last one in the queue for tonight…It too is from the dark years collection…I’m sure you know that an Arabian poem was written much earlier than this date…I haven’t a clue why I felt compelled to include it in this collection…And I don’t even know why I used all caps for the word single in this one either…Go figure…I used to enjoy E&J brandy quite a bit…It helped me forget some of the pain I was going through at the time…Abd what of Numbers 6:3???I don’t feel compelled to drink anymore…I don’t know if that last one is worth mentioning…
