Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

A Price

There’s a price to pay
For not conforming to the mold
It won’t always be easy and
I won’t always mix in with the crowd
But I wouldn’t have it any other way

The price to pay is relatively small
For striving to be my own person
Craving to explore personal potential
Soaring to the heights of my ambition 
And following my unique dreams

Jennifer Proxenos April 24, 2019 at 12:44 PM Hi Line, conforming to the whims of others is losing one's identity and uniqueness, so I couldn't agree with you more! Awesome write. Poetry Hugs, Jennifer Line Gauthier April 24, 2019 at 6:48 PM Absolutely. Thanks, Jennifer.

Timothy Mcguire April 23, 2019 at 12:41 AM For you and your originality, your talent and intelligence, I would say the price was worth it. Line Gauthier April 23, 2019 at 5:37 AM I feel I have to step it up to make up for lost time... It is a crime to have any shred of talent that is not exploited. Thanks for the encouragement.
