THE POEM "ALL THAT I KNOW" IS DEDICATED TO TWO MEN WHO'S NAMES ARE CARVED INTO A MEMORIAL STONE IN PROVINCETOWN, MASS. I WAS VISITING THERE AND WHEN I READ WHAT IT SAID I COULDN'T STOP CRYING. AT THE TIP OF PROVINCETOWN THERE IS A LITTLE PARK CALLED.........



For $300.00 you can have a message carved in stone for all the world to see.




This is the memorial stone that inspired the words to this poem. I hope it touches you as it did me. To me it stands for love. Everything that I am stands for love and I hope that's the way everyone who crosses my path remembers me.

LOVE IS NEVER WRONG


"ODE TO A GENTLEMAN"
Grant left his garden the other day.
He went out through the front gate.
I thought he'd come back like he always did.
But now I know that I needn't wait.
His quiet way and gentle manner were
my inspiration.
What I broke he would fix.
What he broke I would fix.
He cooked.  I served.  What a cook.
He was my tic.  I was his toc.
Tic Toc Tic Toc Tic Toc
    Toc     Toc     Toc
The one person I could tell all my 
troubles to.
Now what'll I do?
I'll think back on thirty-five
wonderful years we shared together.

.....1961~Peter & Grant~1995........




ALL THAT I KNOW

Baby where'd the time go
my how it has flown
After all these years 
You are all that I know

I don't know how to wake 
.......up alone
I don't know how to 
........answer the phone
You had all the answers
To the wheres and whys
Somewhere along the way
I lost myself in you
What do I do now......
You are all that I know

Nothing to prove, no one to blame
Just two souls relinquishing the chains
Uncharted waters for you & me
Riding different waves
Heading out to sea

One more look before you close your eyes
I see into your soul
I don't know how to let go....
Let go of all that I know
This pain inside.......
How do I say goodbye?

Baby where'd the time go
My how it has flown
After all these years
you are all that I know
I don't know how to wake up alone
I don't even know how to answer the phone
you had all the answers
to the wheres and whys
Somewhere along the way 
I lost myself in you

Tell me one more thing
before you go
Tell me how do I let go
Of all that I know
