I bought a real cheap scanner $69.00 from WalMart online. Cannon I think-works like a charm.

Years I bought a Micro Tech for my older Mac paid $800.00 for that-sits here and does nothing.

I have no control over what scanner exists here..
The one I could get to work isn't compatible with WinXP.

Friendship of the souls
behold kindred hearts
to hold the hand of grief in mine
to know that should the wheel be reversed
to me the loving hand of friendship
is there for me.

Weeping hearts in solitude at times
beg to cry on shoulders broad
and to know the warmth of one little nod
can melt a mountain into sod

A happy laugh, a cheery hello,
you are my friend, don't you know
that will not change in our time
of melting snows of making rhymes
our bonds run deep like cold springs
and are silent, yet, spoken with eyes
that know sorrow deep within a soul.

Thank You friend you are the best
with you there is peaceful rest
quiet smiles, and happy chuckles
soothing life's winkles with happy eyes.

Good nite poets

May the sweet aroma of Lily of the Valley
fill your dreams
caress your face
tenderly lull you to sleep
in the safety of knowing love...

~ Dream a Little ~ Love a Lot ~

I remember the color your hair was...
the color of spiced rum
With memories of you
walking without me
in gentle oriental rain
Left me with dreams
of being lost in your embrace.
The peace in your eyes
shone through
I was lost, lost
in your eyes
..........lost
in your embrace...
Dreams of you at Indian Twilight...

Good Saturday morning everyone!
Lovely day here. We have sun!

"Did You Never Know?"
by Sarah Teasdale

Did you never know, long ago, how much you loved me--
That your love would never lessen and never go?
You were young then, proud and fresh-hearted,
You were too young to know.

Fate is a wind, and red leaves fly before it
Far apart, far away in the gusty time of year --
Seldom we meet now, but when I hear you speaking,
I know your secret, my dear, my dear.

Good Morning Everybody.

Bernina's Band-Aids



Bernina had a Band-Aid
on her elbow and her chin,
her ankles, knees and forehead,
plus her shoulder and her shin.

Another two were on her ears
and ten were on her toes.
She'd one on every finger
and a big one on her nose.

Her Band-Aids were the coolest
that her friends had ever seen.
A few of them had leopard spots
and some were neon green.

A bunch were lit with lightning bolts,
or stars and crescent moons,
while some had superheroes
from the Saturday cartoons.

Bernina's now in trouble
for there's just one little catch;
she used up all the Band-Aids
but she didn't have a scratch.

Hi Feather. For some reason I thought of Kerry when I found this poem. :-)

[Soaring Feather]

Just got this in my email...... LOL



I am John Kerry.



I was against the first
Iraq war, I am against the second
Iraq war, but I voted for it. Now I'm against it but I
was for it. I support the UN. I'm against terrorism and
against the Iraq war. But I voted for the Iraq war. So, I
voted against the first war and supported the second war,
wait...



I'm against gay marriage but for gay unions. I support
gays but think the SF mayor is wrong. I support gay
marriages. No, wait, gay unions.



I'm Catholic. Wait, I'm Jewish. My dad was Jewish. But I
was raised Catholic.



What am I? I don't want to confuse people.



I am for abortions, but wait, I'm Catholic, and Catholics
are pro-life. But I might consider putting pro-life judges
in office, but I'm not sure. I do know I voted for a pro-
life judge, but I stated that it was a mistake.



I went to Vietnam. But, I was against Vietnam. I testified
against fellow US troops in Vietnam, threw my medals away
and led others to do the same. But I am a war hero.
Against the war.



I stated I threw my medals away then I threw my ribbons
away. I then revealed that I threw my ribbons away but not
my medals, then lately I stated that I threw someone else's
medals away and never threw anything of mine away.



I believe Ribbons and medals aren't the same thing. Medals
come with ribbons, so now I believe that ribbons and
medals are the same thing besides the fact that ribbons
are cloth and medals are metal.



I wrote a book that pictured the US flag upside-down on
its cover. But now I fly and campaign in a plane with a
large flag right-side up on it. But sometimes, we fly
upside-down for fun.



Yasser Arafat is a hero and a statesman. The Israelis
shouldn't kill Palestinian terrorists, but they should
stop terrorism. Yasser Arafat is a terrorist supporter. I
support Mideast peace.



I am for the common man, unlike Bush. I am against the
rich. But my family is worth 300 million dollars; has a jet
and many SUVs. I am the common man.



I am against sending jobs overseas. My wife is a Heinz
heir, which Heinz has most factories offshore. I am
against rewarding companies for exporting jobs as long as
it is not Heinz.



I own $1 million in Wal-Mart stock. I believe Wal-Mart is
evil by driving small business owners out of town. I am a
capitalist and I own part of Wal-Mart, but I am a good guy
for small corporate America.



I own SUVs when I talk to my followers in Detroit, MI,
Teresa owns SUVs, I don't, when I talk to tree hugging
followers. I have a campaign jet that gets 1/3 mpg, which
is great fuel efficiency.



I am against making military service an issue in
presidential elections. I defended a draft dodger, Clinton
and stated that all serve in their own capacity; whether
they draft dodge or not. Did I mention, I served in Vietnam
and am a hero? Are you questioning my patriotism? I served
in Vietnam. My opponent didn't. I have three purple
hearts! I am a hero. I am qualified to run this country
since I served.



I am John Kerry.

Orion's Dark Eyes

 Orion, old, polished,

jewelled, turning 

dark eyes

journeying over heaven.



A bright and great night canopy

passing our world

whispering love

echoing music of desire

to a heart beating time



listening in the dark for us...

One year ago, at this moment 4:00 p.m., I had read my poem My Dragon Fly and Me at the International Society of Poets Convention in Washington, D.C.
I came out of there a winner.

The graphic is my book cover. I created this graphic.
