That girl, just a tv show, a comment on equality, Carol Burnett, slapstick extraordinaire, JFK and MLK died so young but touched me, Joe Dimaggio, I wanted to be as a kid, smashing rocks tossed in the air the last inning of the world series imagining, the drama all in my head, so little of the world did I know then, Ghandhi should be my hero, or Lincoln, but in my top ten, are Marge, just a lady I know, who loved animals and people, Pops, my old friend, who has always been there when I needed him, Shakespeare , of course, who I quote , "When a father gives to his son, both laugh; when a son gives to his father, both cry." Albert Einstein who once stated "You can't blame gravity for falling in love." Helen Keller, when I think of her I feel ashamed for complaining, and of course Jesus, and Allah and Moses and Abraham and Aphrodite; Nature and Sky and Wind
