all in all
would say i had a charmed life
thanks to my guardian angel
who must have worked flat out
looking after me
in my advernturous youth
seen too many humphrey bogart movies
thought deck class was deck chairs tea and cushions
not so on a steamer crossing the equator
when i think on it now
i can hardly believe
i did any of it
wake in fright
fools rush in where angels fear to tread
I love CSN - I was lucky to see/hear them live once. I also truly understand what you mean by a guardian angel.
ReplyDeleteI so resonate with this poem. There must be a lot of tired guardian angels from those days........I cant believe my story either. Smiles. I love the photo - there is a story there!
ReplyDeleteThe names of songs/artists I have memorized, but forgot. Here I am singing them. Thank you. Were we fools to rush in? I hope today's youth have equivalent chances and decide to take them! With guardian angels, of course.
ReplyDeleteGod, we were all fools then. Guardian angels were indeed very busy. I'd like to hear more about your adventures... and your misadventures! Well played. The second pic is an absolute gas! Amy
ReplyDeleteHi rall, this made me think of my times at sea (former navy). Fortunately your angel stuck with you 😉
ReplyDelete"all in all / would say i had a charmed life"....I love this & the photo.
