JANE AUSTEN
She was well-versed in writing,
With words which touches the heart more than the pierce of a nose ring,
Her characters are bold,
With a nature both haughty and cold.
Elizabeth did find her Darcy at last,
Though she did not explore him much,
Like finding a piece of creamy cake after hours of fast,
And finding someone who is one such!
She

Confident Cocky Treepie
The treepie was confident and cocky, walking my fence
Tottering and tittering to himself, in a bravado-like manner
He was a handsome bird, his colors painted in compartments
Yellows, blacks, whites; he looked distinguished like a penguin
They both wear a tuxedo-like feather pattern

Super Confident Carolyn Lee
Carolyn Lee, a quirky artist, befriended me
She did everything with a bucket of glee
Best of all, her friendship was free
I learned a lot from Carolyn Lee.
She played art well, with a tee hee hee
Always laughing and beautifully
Other people’s criticism she did not hear or see
She was super confident, Carolyn Lee.
Why don’t you come paint with

STRONG, CONFIDENT AND WISE
From our connection with Native Nations…
the first people to walk this land…
comes three bits of wisdom
that have to do
with the way we stand….
The first one sets the tone:
May we be be strong enough to stand alone…
The second…comes from our heart:
May we be confident to stand apart…
And the third will help us any

Live your life, too, do not let poetry steal

Four is Super Confident
We coddled and coaxed
Cajoled and cuddled
Caressed and calmed
Candy would not budge
We encouraged and enthused
Attempted to inspire and excite
Candy smiled
But refused to comply
We teased and tormented
Attempting to train her our way
Candy laughed and skipped away
Super confident at age four.

Sit And Talk A spell
Come sit and talk a spell, dear wind,
Whisper soft where you’ve been,
Through valleys green, past mountain tops,
In twilight’s hush, where day’s light stops.
Tell me, waves, of the ocean deep,
Where secrets swirl and shadows creep.
Your endless pulse, a song so true,
Lull me now, beneath skies blue.
Oh seas, you cradle the world in time,
Swaying slow with rhythm

Moving Uphill
Moving up one's journey uphill,
Though for many a soul a thrill,
Is a scary endless struggle
Verging on a daily battle.
One may expect thorns on the way
And a scorching sun through the day,
One may witness wild winds uphill
With not a spot oneself to shield;
One may expect rough, rugged roads
With no single voice one to goad,
One

self confident Mort
March hare rides a bike to twinkle town court
The rest of the bunnies are a bit jealous of Mort.
He thinks he’s all that, and I guess maybe he is.
Said a caramel-eating rabbit named Oldie McGizz.
Mort hears the chatter, and smiles deep and wide.
He has self-confidence, which means he likes himself inside.
He keeps pedaling, all the

Confident Cousin Claire
At the laundromat a girl who could not find a chair
Sat in a dryer, her attitude was beyond compare
She did not care who gawked or gave her a stare.
I know her well, she is my self-confident cousin, Claire.

she was her own confident witch
she was her own confident witch
never felt a mean hand or switch
played in a sewer or a ditch
leaning into every gulch, glen or glitch
Her left eye had a twitch
She was no kind of snitch
Her boots were made of pitch
She was her own confident witch

Confident In Your Ignorance
Go ahead,
Tell the world what to do
So it’s more like
The world you want.
Forget for a moment
You have only been here
For a moment
While the world
Both the literal earthy one
And the figurative human one
Have been here
Turning, surviving, evolving
For a very long time indeed.
Tell us
What we need to do
To make this all a safe
And better place
To preserve

Confident Frenchie
She sits like a man
With one leg up high
Bent at the knee
She smokes like a man too
Thinking it is sexy
Not realizing how horrible nicotine smells
Not caring either

Fellow Leos
Dear Lions,
Please keep standing strong in our world with so much wrong.
Keep your senses alert to fair and foul, especially when out there
on the prowl, for not every foe is going to growl..
Get out there with you're confident stride, don't wallow in hurts
and petty pride, a genuine heart can turn any tide.
