My Hands are Rough
Ditched the white collar job
Never looked back
Always an opposite
No regrets
My hands are rough
Calloused focus
You lay next to me
Stunning in a whiskey haze
My salt and pepper beard
Against your lovely skin
Tracers and marks
Tell our story

Love your paintings, but so happy you used your pic. Authenticity and confidence are killer and you do them so well.

Love the feel of bristles…

I have to admit. I love using those whiskers on tender skin and then caring for her with whiskey and grace. It's quite a woman that can endure all that ....
Love the comment and RL Mary. Colder whether will mean more beards..
Stay tuned
Thanks from my Lips Gallery

Via your writes, you give good hand. Lol.
I thrive on reading the simplistic nature of writes like this. It's reaffirming of our nature as nurturers. You did this so well. Wonderful words!

That shadow beard yields a lot of poems.
I'm a pretty simple guy at this age but I still know how to frame my stories. Give me good whiskey, a fine woman and somewhere to write and paint. I don't sleep much and won't talk about politics or religion. Razor optional
Appreciate the nod and RL
Let drink another

Due to the nature of mother nature this evening, I'm drinking coffee! I can't relax well when I feel like I'm on duty, due to the hurricane conditions. I'm not panicky, ever. Just on stand by for whatever happens.
Actually my area is mostly spared the worst again. But not all areas are. It sucks that anyone deals with such devastation. But, when we live in Florida... hurricanes, sharks, alligators...
I'm basically stuck now, too. Main roads flooding and emergency crews setting up road blocks. I'm thankful though, it could be much worse.

I'm glad all is well in your neck of the woods.
Got a condo myself in South Florida but haven't used it in a few years.
I went to the U of M back in the dark ages, didn't learn much but tripped out a lot. Felt like I majored in psychedelics....
Stay safe son.. Nothing wrong with coffee ...

I never wear a mustache because it grows in dark still.
Prefer my salt and pepper mess. I call it my Muslim look.
Chick's dig it, who am I to deny Hot Sauce 🔥 ??
