Our love is like a distant fire.
Burning bright and hot with desire.
I think of you every waking hour.
Your devoted love gives me power.
--
We are married, but not to each other.
I'm a father and you are a mother.
We think about how things might have been.
If we had known each other way back when.
--
Now all we can do is wait and hope.
We must, my love, find a way to cope.
I know some day we will be together.
Then we will have each other forever.

Howdy y’all. It’s me, ninong7 aka UJ aka John. Just a short intro about myself. I am a Texan that has retired in the Philippines. I moved to the Philippines with my wife back in May 2010. I am retired from the US Air Force. The music I like is mostly Classic Country and Classic Rock. I guess you could say that I am “Classic”. I play dominoes when I can find someone that will play, I play chess, cribbage, spades, hearts, Empire Builder, Rail Baron, Acquire and a few other games. I like to write poems and stories (although pretty novice) and I love learning about history, just about any history. I’m at home on my computer a lot but if I could afford to, I’d be traveling and documenting my travels to post in my blog. I hope to get to know a lot of you through PeakD and Discord.
