Reclusive, Regrettable
Ever lost a Friend?
I mean COVID business
Put him under the bridge.
He is staying there.
Recently a grandpa with
Another coming.
That and his white cat.
Online employment
Friends have trundled off.
A former Pastor.
Left that.
Tried the House Church movement.
Left that, as did I.
We used to meet every
Sunday early at
Tim Horton’s
Plus 2 or 3 others.
Talk about Men Stuff
Without restraint.
Bible at table’s centre.
Holy Ghost would enter.
