It's Lei Strauss

Whole people know my story
Feel terribly not so sorry
Made a crazy poems about myself
Just want to put them on my shelf.

Here’s another poem from my lips
Giving lessons from my trips
I’ll keep on writing till end of the day
Though I’ll not receive any good pay.

I can write thousands of words
Write something about your precious Lords
Spend a time right here at my side
My mind is writing from my deepest inside.

It’s not about glory or fame
A passion burning that is so hard to tame
Whether I have good poems or bad,
It’s only way for me not to get sad.

They called me incredible “Lei Strauss”
One who keeps trying and bagging the cross.
I won’t be blinded by your light
All I know my poems are getting to right

I write for one person Lei - and that is for me - if people like my work that is great - if not they need not leave nasty comments. I don't write for fame or glory - I simply started to write as a way of expressing my emotions when my hubby got cancer and writing has helped me through the worst 14 months of my life - i never want to stop writing - I LOVE it! hugs Jan xx
