as a child I had dreams with visions in my mind
I sought peace from nature & grasp meaning of words
asking a lot of questions along life's journey
my grandma always said, "Why be in a hurry".
I drew pictures in the sky of kings and queens
far off places with dungeons and dragons.
always reading book with story's of adventure
in time I would venture to my swing & sing
although many years have passed still having every reason to grasp a hold of my legacy
a willingness inside to achieve
then the seasons have chamged i was in my teens
had a fascination with girls but it was only out of lust
I was in quite a rush until I caught mono & had to go to the hospital
all I wanted to be was on center stage so I became lead in my play
that event made everyone's day i must say then i was prom king
there was a working in me at the fall of 1989
I decided to write my first poem, "Remembrance Of A Loved One".
based on the break up with my first girl friend named Michelle
that poem was a great story to tell
then it was the changing of the season & out came nine eleven with the twin towers
filled with sorrow I poured myself into writing instead of hiding
all the time leaving behind a legacy by which to achieve
then my father died & i was said again
yet over time i would shine through the sorrow & pain
my creative writing was always free verse yet i also wrote prose
that leads into today where I'm on display
having 2, 000 poems toward my platform
writing on various topics of religion, nature & suspense
yet i still haven't made a dent
still each day i pray to the good Lord up above that he would shape me into a legacy
this is my humble plea so check my writings out
it will give you pause to reason what it is I'm talking about
