Life's Journey

Born in 1973, it’s the year I begin This evolution of shedding skin Finished High school, an 80’s journey Experienced art, science, and a teenage honey Went to college to become a teacher Now to my students, I’m the art preacher I’m married with a great family I thank God for them daily With each life changing moment Maturing through love and torment Every morning my day begins Living a new and shedding old skins --------------------------------------------------------------- Inspired by Christopher Higgins- shedding your skin- contest
