I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose.
Thanks for checking it out.

Something’s got to give, if not all of it to be fair. Yes, Christine, we are given every opportunity to be nice and forgiving. A strong write but it is pushing to make good. Great!
some folks you just have to leave a wide path… and when you see them coming, hide behind a tree… in a completely different state. a very well expressed notion, well done.

There is indeed a story behind this chant and most likely a warehouse of hurt.
