A POEM BY ME 7-10-07

SOME WRITE ABOUT MOUNTAINS AND PRAIRIES.


SOME WRITE OF PAIN AND DEATH.


SOME QUESTION THEIR EXISTENCE,


SOME MASTER THEIR WISDOM,


SOME SLEEP AND JUST WAIT, 
 NO LONGER AWARE- THAT LIFE BLOSSOMS
                                                                AND WANES.


AND ME I JUST SIT AND STARE...


AWARE OF THOUGHTS NOT QUITE MINE ALONE.


IT IS EASY TO GUESS AND LET LIFE PASS ME BY, TO SCARED TO RETREAT, TO WEARY TO BELONG.


A STAR BY ITSELF, NEW TO THE WORLD...LET'S STRIKE UP THE BAND!
