My Ten Poems That Define Me

We are not merely poets 
I am six hundred other things besides this

My Girl
Explains my voyeuristic childhood self.

My Pirate Women
I have been fascinated with them since Pippi Longstocking.

Color Me Happy
I am difficult to hurt; I believe in a joyful me.

Lickety Split
I live the life of this kindergarten teacher.

Hi I Say Brightly
I am notoriously eager to ignore adversity.

I am Addicted to Word Games
I play four to six hours of scrabble every evening.

Color Imagined
I love watching ducks swim in the spring.

We are World Wide Mirrors
We are all together in this, feeling the same emotions

Plethora of Flowers
Nothing delights my fairy-like essence more than marigolds

I wrote 18 poems yesterday Curtis, which is why I had to find another poetry site. I once wrote 33 poems in one day. I type them directly into a computer and I type 86 words a minute. That is the real SECRET to my swiftness. I am the fastest typist I know thanks to an angry, mean hateful typing teacher who used to smack us with rulers and stuff.

I can't read near as much as I used to here. But I wrote out this list and titled it "To Do".
