Maybe he just looked down and said "Damn kid its just tough". So Jason, my friend tonight the Brandy's on you I'll drink to a man so giving and true..... Here is to you now that you heavens wings I hope that the angels are dancing and the cherubs will sing This poem is Copyright © korax Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
