I'M Gettin' Better

I was naive and immature

Always nervous and insecure

        I'm better now

        let me tell you how

Where once I was indecisive -  now I'm not so sure!

This is an awesomely humorous poem and right on target with the emotions, Ralph. The last line is fabulous. When we are stressed out, we can't even figure out if we're indecisive. Congratulations on your first-place win! Love, Carolyn
