Ranting a Rant

By rvh1956

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I lay right here a peeve. Nothing hidden up my sleeve. Not trying to jest you, or even upset you. All have heard the line; 'Wake up and smell the coffee.' These words are mine, seeing them you see me. Why do they 'sleep', living such bad dreams, when the answer is much simpler than it seems. Be aware of things which your life brings. Run from them not. End time you get caught. I write this with care, my heart laid bare, showing you here, how much I care. So as you go now, back to your life. Try and go now, avoiding such strife. ------- Tic Tic Tic ------- WAKE UP -------I encourage 'critical' comment on this. I appreciate encouragement very much, yet if you think this can be improved. Please feel free to say so. Thank you :o) Written April 20th, 2002 © on Apr 20 2002 11:15 AM PST, Richard Vance Haeckel   18 • 0 • 1
