October Nine

OCTOBER NINE 

I could not wait nine months to come out
and see the world; so I did on nine
of October, so prematurely.
A blue baby, lucky to survive.
My lucky number nine, versatile
for it can be read six upside down.
So lucky to share October nine
with John Lennon and my music Maestro.
Both composers, singers, musicians.

Thanks so much, Sara. I miss writing poems, have not done so for a week. I'm inundated with projects, assignments for my classes. Writing essays on my concert reviews for my Voice class and finishing my drawings for presentation. Have a great evening

Thanks, Belle! Have a good day. I don't know what time it is by you. It's probably Friday morning. It is Thursday night here.
