At Home Here If I'm ever away , then I just want to go back, Home. Where , when it rains, I can hear the water, flow into our rain barrels and feel the moisture seeping down..down..down..into the roots of the trees. I can lift up my face and let the rain kiss my cheecks as I stare at a star and try to decode the coyote's message. In the summer the tree frogs sing of tresures and the owl flys noislessly by. Why need I go anywhere else, when the sun passes through this one sky in a day and the changes of the seasons, and the blossemings of the moons fill my whole world with mystery. to decode the message of the coyotie

Thank you John. I am so embarrassed. I typed this up as a poem, spaced out and the everything then after I sent it I looked and the words were all crunched up without even any spaces between the now sentences. Im fairly new to this computer and dont know what I did wrong. My e-mail is not coming in.msn keeps giving me a message that they are working on it. So could the e-mail that I send out be messed up too????

Hubbie the Hermit always tells people "Why should I go anywhere? I live in paradise.I don't want to leave.Let people come visit me."

On computer question,we have a couple of enthusiasts on this forum,so go ahead and post it as a question and see if they can help.

Had to re-read your answer. Thought you said you were "spaced out" and wrote the poem. Wow, Far Out!! I remember (kinda) getting pretty poetic doing the spaced out routine!!!! No answer on the computer stuff. Sorry.

Really, I musta been there, I just can't remember the 60's. John

You can also use HTML.
To see how I did this,
Position your cursor on this text,
right click on the text,
and a menu will pop up.
On the menu, click on "View Source"
A separate box will pop up,
and you can look at the "breaks" I entered at the end of each line.

In fact, if you all want to read it the way jTrendle entered it originally, do the right click, view source, and you will be able to see it!

I feel so stupid, you responders are Angels , for taking the time to try and help this computer toddler... THANK YOU..AND MERRY CHRISTMAS

Trendle - Your poem might not have been spaced right, but it sure is beautiful. I read it thru three times and it really made me feel all teary. You expressed how I feel, except I only hear coyotes once in a great while. But the feeling is the same. Thanks for sharing!
