I think my first husband did that to me once too. My mother was rather a nag to my father and as a role model, I think I copied her. Then I realized I had to show respect for the one who loves me.

It's depthful and real, tugs at my heart. I appreciated the poem and the back story. I like "Bird on a Wire" as well. I never listened to Cohen as a teen, but was introduced to him later on. I think the first I knew of him was after I learned the Judy Collins sang many Cohen songs, and I liked Judy Collins a lot. Lately I have been listening to Cohen everyday again...as I walk the track.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139696084392272622.post-48840046562828801662013-02-16T22:53:05.389+00:002013-02-16T22:53:05.389+00:00nice verse anna...and i appreciate your background...nice verse anna...and i appreciate your background story as well..ugh...i wonder if we all havent had a time we opened our mouthes and let something out that we should not have...or let our emotions get the best of us...i am glad it worked out for you though...must have been a hard couple days there....your verse has a really nice lyrical quality to it...Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.com
