Short Forays Poems

I know the life I led
is no good
I want to make it whole
Get the right advice !
but the slope is too high
Trying not to worry about foreign forays

Wildlife forays of the wild oft can’t beat my backyard for fauna.

collaged

The performed voyager

with resplendent coffee bars with Wi FI
