I would tell the old me that I did not have to listen to the mean messages.
Someday I would meet my tribe, and they would uplift and inspire me.
That I would become a wonderful mother and know I was not crazy.
I would let the old me know that negative self-talk is of no help.
That other people’s efforts to pull me down, did not work.
I would tell her to be around positive people, leaving her family behind.
The old me would be astounded that I had become a cartoonist.
That I am now a painter and a poet, that I can be creative all day long.
The old me would be overjoyed, clapping her hands, kicking her feet.
Frederick Ogden Nash
did a lot more than sling hash
his poetical humor knew no bounds
and his writing never failed to astound
His girlfriend’s stacked, she’s a 44D
Doesn’t crave attention, says ‘Let me be’
But when whistles abound
His girl wants to astound
She's just removed her brassiere ~ Wanna see
Trump Is Bound To Astound
Trump thinks that he has been bound
To astound when he was found around;
Was explicit;
He is illicit;
In own sorrow did seem to be drowned.
Jim Horn
Always Knew I Could Astound
My mind opened up and feet hit the ground,
Always knew that someone I could astound,
With poems I wrote,
And time did devote;
God had for me which were waiting around.
Jim Horn
with nary a sound
I walk up behind you
and kneel on the ground
a smile on my face
a glint in my eyes
as my arms wrap around you
with a pleasant surprise
gentle persuasions
wet lips in a race
hot breathe on your back
I've quickened your pace
and now
my fingers are darting all over the place
temperature's rising
hearts palpitating
cosmic vibration
skin scintillating
I know you can feel me
I'm glad that I found you
breathe deeply my love
'cause it's time to astound you
