Other Side of my Heart

Can't complain
but I must refrain
or the doubt begins to start;

that's okay
it's just the other side of my heart.

Look away?
Don't be that way
and we'll never be apart;

it's okay,
that just another side of my heart.

I feel so much
with a different touch
you couldn't get them in a cart;

that's okay
It's just the other sides of my heart.

Doc

these first lines ? Can’t complain but I must refrain or the doubt begins to start; that’s okay it’s just the other side of my heart. Was crazy good. I loved those words , It takes a strong mind not to be seduced [Can’t complain but I must refrain or the doubt begins to start;]. Long story short , Doc my grammar leaves me in places . Were I am judged [ my spelling] in the chat line mostly . And Doc did the doubt begin to start. But Rett [ I call RETT Dad & he calls me son] said to me one day ? That people who have a problem with grammar are very good in math ,science and that is so true with me [ like you said it's ok the other side of my heart]. Anyway Doc I take it like a man, because I should spell right. PEACE DOC TRUTH WITH HEART WORDS WITH ART UN COMPROMISED BY THOUGHT

Say, Press....

...you should pick up one of these "gizmos", that I found ! It's an NCS-100 Webster's Spelling Corrector, made by Franklin Electronic Publishers. All that you do is, simply type in the word in question, and it tells you if you've got it right, or wrong. It's that simple ! It then tells you the different related words, and exactly how to spell them. After that, just look up the word in the dictionary for it's meaning. (The company's in Burlington, New Jersey.) I do this "commercial", because it's so frustrating to try and look up a word, when you don't know how to spell it ! This way, the device can help teach you, along...ya know? Anyway, you might want to look into it, it wasn't that much...$15.00 to $25.00 dollars; but it really saves time.....and frustration. Thank you for your kind words, about my words. "Spelling Bee" king, or not..you are STILL an important opinion, to me...and I need for you to know, that you're appreciated. "Write on"! sincerely 8==== docmaverick.
