I Do Not Care

I don’t care I say It has become my mantra Those who know me well laugh Because they know me well It shuts down the troublemakers “I don’t care” means They cannot get a rise out of me They cannot change my mood They wander away to bother others I don’t care My mantra Works for me

I seriously think I should adopt your mantra, if you don't mind, Caren. I looked at Milt's photo yesterday when I ran across one of his poems in searching my own. I know we both miss him. Tomorrow will 9 months since he's been gone. A time for weeping again.
