Onward, Aging Poet, don't be Gone.
Is A Young Man's Dream to be Alone?
Or will A Brief Pause on Earth
produce a Forgotten Tombstone?
Cat & I were just Contemplating
A Few Simple Things, like a Toy Train,
A Short Yellow Rose, Cosmic Scenes,
Drunken Dancing Fish, and Rain.
Just Wanted You to Know
It's Just the Glow.
Finally, I have just one more thing to say:
since I am A Million Miles from Home,
Are You Here to Take Me Home Today?
Bharati got here first, but I would have known him at once. This is my good friend and fellow cowboy, Smoky Hoss. Great puzzle and poem. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks, Cowboy. I still have a couple that are not solved yet. Go find 'em.
A good puzzle. But for Bharati Nayak's discovery, I wouldn't have recognised the poet.
Oh Great! I have found him, because I have read many of his comments on poems of other poets.----Yes [he is Smoky Hoss ---I will go to his page and see whether I have left any comment on his poem.
Congratulations, Bharati. Well done! Yes, you have correctly identified my friend Smoky Hoss.

Howdy Kim! I haven't been on here in a spell, but thanks to Cowboy I discovered it. I am humbled and impressed and sincerely moved. Thank you (beyond words) for this beautiful poem, for just plain thinking of me. You made me tear up a bit; thank you pal. I appreciate it deeply.
