And on this day
One day before me
There you were born
Being first you paved
The way for me
And as best friends
And like a frame
You surrounded my craziness
With home and friendship
Giving me the chance
To whimper and bark
Somewhere in the middle
Of the Midwest somewhere
Tackle boxes are made
You set out first
Knowing I would follow
Tomorrow souls do dream
Before they are born
And we did dream
Of being friends forever
Happiest of birthdays Rick

JuiceTheOrange
I don’t dismiss the
Past for life is
Like a bag of
Oranges and each experience
But one single fruit
I learn what I
Need to learn and
Carry its wisdom with
I juice the orange
Leaving behind the pulp
Success
Success is measured by doing the best that you can with what you have. It’s not about being better than anyone. It’s about being better than yourself.
BeThePond
You can only love
When you yourself are
Ready to love get
Your life in order
Be your best self
Shine and never tempt
With loneliness and desperation
For those two negativities
Will only attract others
Who so swim in
Them but rather be
Like a clear cool
Pond offering yourself to
Others that can swim
IDidItDespite
My three favorite words
Are I did it
I see life not
As an obstacle course
Designed not to give
But as an adventure
One of promise and
Of dreams and hope
Life is a marvelous
Thing to be enjoyed
And not merely survived
And the cornerstone of
Life is accepting that
Whatever I have no
Matter how little is
Always enough no matter
What the naysayers think
