While Summoning
Truth untold
Cover those eyes
Past symbols combine
Fast-forward
It’s time
Most difficult lesson
For this ego to learn
Respect for what’s earned
While not summoning
False pride

Had a bagel this morning, does that count? lol Oh, about that comment I left earlier, I’m working on a solution. The answer IS social media, but how? Hmm… 🙂

Read this earlier today…but forgot to leave a message..well I think there was form to fillout and I hate forms…any way…I believe respect is earned…not given as a function of someone’s title or profession…I like this poem.

I agree, Martin. Respect is earned. Speaking of which, I’ve noticed in many comments people “getting” & appreciating your work. It’s cool to see that. Thanks for the encouragement you’ve given all of us.

Happy Saturday!
it is snowing in my place, things are upside down…
March 20, 2010 at 9:58 am
It’s snowing here too. After a a bunch of days of beautiful weather, I wasn’t expecting this. More like I checked the weather report, and just chose not to believe it. lol

Ego.. The tiny small three letter word – in size; the huge soul burden and biggest barrier standing in between us and our humanity!
Oh my.. What’s this i just wrote? I have no clue 🙂
But your poem is amazing Adam.
