Success isn't a result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire. ~Arnold H. Glasow
Parody of Patterns
A promise is a parody right from its inception
That can explode like fireworks,in every which direction
Its intention maybe noble, with honor at its core
But what is pledged with purest heart, can go right out the door!
So ask me not for promises I fear I may not keep
Accept my words and actions, I've set in easy reach
Just know that I am here for you, tho I may seem oblique
And try to light my fireworks, in patterns straight and neat

I wrote this poem... because... for period of time I had so many people in my life claiming that I promised this or that....and I knew....I didn't!!
Anita...this is beautifully done. I learned never to make a promise.I dislike when people do , because most times it does as you say, "goes right out the door"...

Someone told me one time that 'duck bites' didn't hurt, but all those little pieces add up.
