Feeling crushed, broken can often seem like all is lost, but does it have to be.


Poem Artwork

Needs careful thought

not deeds called knee jerk

if you don't count the cost

what will you do

all could be lost

so avoid being a fool.

Plan all that you can

in life it's better

see beyond the horizon

not muttering why,

why be filled

with so many regrets

just mentally die

constantly sigh.

While you can

do not sit on a hill

purveying the world

like your an also ran,

not all is lost

much depends on you

call it perceptions

maybe a chance

to make life a new.

live in regrets

muttering why.

Perceptions are good here in Houston. People are being very helpful and cooperative.

America is so great.

Regrets can be deadly for one's health. Healthier to live in the here and now.
