PENNIES FROM HEAVEN
Dec 3rd 2017
The poet drags his baggage in,
All his stories..all,
His dreams,
And from the dark of night his screams!
Lets you pick, peruse..
What you like..what,
You choose.
The rest is lost,
re'fuse.
Waste he keeps, he will cherish..
Like an old button off a tatterd shirt she loved for her visits there!
His baggage,
His memories,
Thoughts..His..
Little pennies from heaven,
Treasures..
And burdens,
For no matter where he's been,
The poet drags his baggage in..
Peace

Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
