To Carrie,
Yes, I wrote this poem myself. I had been down in Mississippi gambling
and was driving back in my new car listening to a CD by Willie Nelson which
always puts me in a poetic mood. As in most of myself stuff "Ode.." needs
some work. I do not like the structure of the first verse. I write
impetuously, but it's always from the heart and gut. I am glad people like
it. Maybe I will get back to writing more now.
Bobby
