Snippet

11/21/16

Just a snippet
Made out in the land of crickets

You either did or didn't
Put forth the effort, time and commitment
Above and below the ridges
Hits and misses
Pushing it to the limits
Got to take care of business
From the start past the finish
Again and again with a quickness
And swiftness
Focused on nearby surroundings and in the distance

People looking at you funny if you are or aren't religious
The same could be said for being superstitious

Gas, solids and liquids
The terrain and weather calm,scorching or frigid
Mild to extreme conditions

Learn from your mistakes and understand the difference
While still in existence

Benefits in using eucalyptus
And many things that are citrus

She liked the smell of hibiscus
And having koi fishes

Some only talk pigeons 
And chicken

Grand openings started with the cutting of a ribbon


Golf courses with divots

Sentimental and valuable dishes
Historical bridges
 
Kid friendly music or explicit

Messages encrypted
Future events predicted

Shallow to deep ditches

We know there has been cannibalism
Before and after many schisms

Have other life forms ever paid us a visit?

No proof of the truth, therefore does it make it fiction?

Respect the environment and ecosystem

To you and your kindred
Best of wishes
