Here's another of my really early works...  I'LL BE What do I think? What'll I say? Thoughts on the brink Of fleeing away. Words in my mind Floating about Thoughts too confined Stand up and shout! Tell them all now They're listening still. They may not care now But hear me they will. Who cares of the rest's Opinions of me? My plan's the best I'll be what I'll be!  |

Who gives a damn if they dont like what the see I am not here to please them...simply want to be me They may not have to listen as I stand up and shout But believe me I will be heard let there be no doubt. Way to go Nan...stand up and be counted and never let the world pass by without making YOUR mark on it. |

Yep, this goes on my list! I wish my first works were this good... heck, I wish my current works were this good   Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. JP "Everything is your own damn fault, if you are any good." E. Hemmingway |
