** I wrote this during Socials last year, and I think it turned out quite well. If not, well, just let me know... I won't get mad!


If you want to talk with me,
You must first sing with me.
If you want to sing with me,
You must first fly with me.
If you want to fly with me,
You must first soar with me.
If you want to soar with me,
You must first run with me.
If you want to run with me,
You must first walk with me.
If you want to walk with me,
You must first fall with me.
If you want to fall with me,
You must first rise with me.
If you want to rise with me,
You must first love me.
If you want to love me,
You must first respect me.
If you want to respect me,
You must first have a friendship with me.
If you want a friendship with me,
You must first talk with me.

Ok wait a second.......ok hehe the poem was great i liked it......i analyze it too.
Ok so i read it forwards......and i was like.....wow nice.......ok so then i read it backwards....and again i was like....wow nice.
Ok so i came to the conclusion.......here it is:
If you want to talk to me
You must first talk to me.

i mean.....it goes around in circular reasoning.......it starts with talk and ends with talk.
So......that has to be the conclusion.
To talk you must talk.....

am i psycho here or something?



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

This was really amazing...I loved the way it flowed so well. I know what Dopey's talking about when he said it was a circular reasoning, it really is.  This was so creative...I really loved it!

I'm with Dopey on this one.  I know he is a psycho, but still, I agree

Well Dopey, you may be a psycho but I thaught the same thing.

To talk to me you must merely talk to me and all these other thisgs (soaring, flying, loving) are possible by simply following step1(talking).  Very creative Rhonda.  I really enjoyed it.
