A Poem For Craig
CRAIG
By: Richard A. Hopkins
03/01/06
His was a spirit that was free----------------------
At least, as far as the world thought it’s rope and harness
Really ought to stretch.
It wanted him to be
Hitched to a load that it could see
A profit in,
That could be bought
And marketed,
And could be got
And offered for a standard fee.
But HE knew best.
Right cheerfully Craig broke away from the herded lot
And shrugged aside the un-natural knot.
The rope is gone. He is fully free.

Hi, Pat,
I just heard about Craig from Gisela and am so sorry; it's a great loss. Please let me know how to reach you. My email address is pschraier@comcast.net
