Ah, femme chamomile,
Soothe my stressed soul
From days do cumber,
Sacred Daisy of the Nile;
Embrace me, Cleopatra girl
In sweetest of slumber
And arms around awhile.

About Me
- Gary
- Georgetown, Texas, United States
- Those who knew me when in high school, knew I played out my Rickenbacker with passion, if only in my mind and heart. Blue eyes have been about my only strongest asset. Secretly, I would rather be napping or fishing. I'm at my finest feeling when alone amid the beautiful desolation of Big Bend.
