This blog was created for others who will hopefully glean something from the words I have written.Not much to say except I ran off from an orphanage when I was 13 years old.Hopped on a freight train and joined the circus.Have been wandering ever since.I am grateful to be alive and my only desire is to leave something here for others to gain from.If I can accomplish that then I have successfully reached my intended goal.All we have left in the end is our legacy.
Down in the valley There is a grove Where centurions live Their roots planted deeply From long ago Boughs entangled with mystery If only they could speak ~ What would be the message Sent to the multitudes Many who are as deaf As they are blind Not meant for all to hear Small fractions are only meant To recieve the wisdom imparted If this were so Down in the valley Amidst the grove of trees ~ They are the seers Of the impending storm Inculcating through invocation Of the impression they leave For all to see Juggernauts standing Side by Side Battle scarred by the weather The merciless winds Bending their boughs and branches Safety can be found in their care For the trees are the silent friends Of all who come to them Their magnificence speaks A thousand words To those who listen quietly Down in the valley In the grove of trees
Herman the rat woke up from his nap Now he is up taking a sniff I think he hears me in the kitchen Chopping up a carrot for him He knows that later on He will get a slice of tomato Wednesday has always been Carrot and tomato day After his curiosity He will go back to his nap Herman brightens the day for me That is why Wednesday Is carrot and tomato day
I woke up this morning There was my father In his hand was a wooden spoon A tear came to my eye Thinking everyone had forgotten Yet here was my father Steadfast by my side Restoring my faith in life It has been long since we laughed Together we went fishing In the latter days We walked the path Of the crooked mile There upon his face Was his familiar smile Now I am no longer afraid With my father close to me Together we will once again Walk the path Out to the open sea
