Once I was ordinary, But that was before, before God breathed Life into my soul and I was born into greatness ... I just didn't know it then.
And so I wasted all of these years thinking I was nothing special - a commoner among royalty, used to a life of servitude; a flea on a purebred's ass, scratching out a comfortable life; a feather floating on the ocean, unwilling to make waves.
Now that I am old and dying, I regret not doing enough to to make life worth remembering; I will die just like I lived: quietly and all alone ...
A wonderful heartfelt write
But I Do know And hope you ain't
leaveing us just yet

Still
It will take a life time
to allow it all to spill
Onto the parchment
that awaits all your wisdom.
This is beautiful, Karla and written with the words of the sage poet that you are. We all have the power to feel as big or as small as we deem our self to be. Excellent poem!
Take care,

This one is truly a good'un! You do what I wish I could make myself do - and I continue to take essons from you. - B ill
Karla honey if you're ordinary then I'll have to go back to school to learn what the word means. This is top-drawer (and deep down you know it;-) Fine writing!
