ABCEdition
Of The Human Condition
A summary of sorts, of the human condition
Brought to you, humbly, in alphabetical position
Carefully arranged to maximize reading pleasure
Don't take life for granted every day's a new treasure
Even when they aren't enchanted or stupendous
Finding joy in it all can be advantageous
Give back when you can, we all need someone to care
Helping your fellow "man," being angels unaware
Intrepid, intense, insightful and inviting
Just a few qualities that make one exciting
Keeping close tabs on our tudes, wiping out negativity
Learning to exhibit control, increases connectivity
Motivational changes can make all the difference
Never doubt your influence you could be someone's deliverance
Optimistically versed, with the skill to equip
Preparing the masses to hone craftsmanship
Quality assurance with attention to detail
Razzle-dazzle the crowds taking energy large-scale
Seriously now, you know where this is going
Trouble comes to us all
Umbrella's only shield from the rain
Very few will skate by
Without their share of pain
Xanadu is a promise we are all hoping for
Yahweh is waiting at the final encore
Zestfully live your life, you've only one life to live

Unmasking the Winchester Mystery House
Hollywood loves capturing our minds and imaginations and showing us visually compelling stories. However, it's important to peel back the layers of truth on cinematic claims that boast "inspired by true events" or "based on a true story." Such is the case with the movie Winchester.

When I read your title and subtitle, I thought this was gonna be about all the human diseases from A to Z, lol! I loved your poem!
Beautifully & sagely written, Kelli. but shouldn't it be "The ABCDeition"? "ABCEdition" kept throwing me off, lol.
Ooo, I loved the use of Xanadu!! Great stuff as always, Kelli :)
Wow! I loved this amazing Abecedarian poem! Packed full of wonderful advice & humour. “ Don't take life for granted every day's a new treasure Even when they aren't enchanted or stupendous Finding joy in it all can be advantageous” I recently experienced this when I was stranded with car troubles! “ Helping your fellow "man," being angels unaware”
