The Best Teacher

Many seek out books in order to learn;
for there is knowledge, within;
but much about its author, you can’t discern;

The Back Of The Class

The Back Of The Class

When young, I was small for my age;
a target for a bullying terrorist;
I sought to hide; rather than engage;
for a fear of becoming embarrassed.

Insecurity was hidden within my being;
I wanted to fit in with the crowd;
preferring, not to be

A Bump In The Road

A Bump In The Road

I was driving down that road less traveled;

from what we surmise is the end of life;

All live in a fragment of the maze of life;
