Silverback

Neville


Notice of absence from Neville
If I get the thumbs up tomorrow from my Doc, I hope to be in Miami on Friday for three days before jumping ship and spending three weeks sailing around South America .. Sheesh, what we do to try n get a touch of inspiration eh' .. Take care while I'm away & please forgive any delay in my going quiet for a while .. Hope to return feeling better than I do write at this moment .. AGT's Neville 😎👍

Silverback

 

  Dear lord, tis just as feared,

I look like someone’s grandpappy ..

Both with and without the beard,

a silverback, if ever there was ..

  But by gum, I am so very happy ..
