Written: by Miracle Man
3-22-2020

Ignoring the obvious is not sly like a fox,
and most Solutions come, from thinking outside the box..

Many concentrate on blaming, not the problem at hand,
as political discourse helps fear to sweep our land.

Cherished dreams;
And just whose to blame,
Me..
I am the blunderer
I am to blame for all my shame;
I'm told hold on,...Read More

Nor the muttering hag of the hall...Read More

He seemed to find it...Read More

Some days, I imagine myself an island,
Set in a sea of distress.
Or a soda that's lost it's fizz,
Lacking carbonation to make me bubble.

The most instinctive reaction to adversity,
Is to whine, plead,...Read More

Thoughts about Friendship
January 2015


Did you know
It takes a lot of cultivating to help a friendship grow,
For friendships don’t just hatch from tiny seed we sow.
And 
You have failed when your worst enemy,
Was once counted among your best friends.

With profundity, I gaze with swollen pride.
