| I love his poems. They have a fantasy feel to them, yet they are so realistic. My favorite poem by him is Needles & Pins. Needles & Pins Needles and pins, Needles and pins, Sew me a sail To catch me the wind. Sew me a sail, Strong as a gale, Carpenter, bring out your Hammers and nails. Hammer and nails, Hammer and nails, Build me a boat To go chasing the whales. Chasing the whales, Sailing the blue, Find me a captain And sign me a crew. Captain and crew, Captain and crew, Take me, oh take me To any where new. I have his book 'Falling Up'. I have to get more of them though. _________________ Someone's a tease. |
