A little about how I feel on life...


Poem Artwork

I’ve been to the mountain

And I’ve been to the pit

I walked in the sunshine

And candles I’ve lit

 

The Ride

By Fee

 

I once loved like forever

Was a true guarantee

Tears cried like a baby

When that love set me free

 

I’ve had fame for a moment

But also sank in obscurity

I smiled for the cameras

Then paid for my vanity

 

I made mistakes as a father

I wish I could take back

Now though I think as Poppy

That I‘m on the right track

 

I’ve lived and I’ve loved

I’ve lied and I’ve sinned

Soared with the eagles

Then had to quickly descend

 

Now the years have flown by

I can see the far away land

Where someday I will travel

When the spirits take my hand

 

Now the words in my heart

Express the life that I had

It’s been a ride to remember

Both all the good and the bad!

This pretty much says it all - for we have all had our ups and downs, but its how we look at them and use them to become who we are today. And Fee I wouldn't change you for a second. You are a wonderful soul, very loving too.

Much love,
Sanja xoxo

Hey Poppy, put some music that Nashville like to hear and send me a copy signed, "from Fee to an Old Sausalito Geezer" it will warm those old bones with real lyrics and country twang a la Willie Nelson.

Fee,
The knowledge & lessons we learn in the chapters of our lives
if only we could have known things sooner, I made mistakes too w/ my daughters & in relationships. Learning is a top knotch kick in the arse sometimes (Ouchie-this is gonna hurt I told myself before) ;)

I am a grammy, but I Love the word Mommy Better....gee I need a tissue...
Beautiful thought & memory lane poem Fee!

I love your outlook, Fee. Oh, how we can all relate to riding life's high roads and low roads; the moments of pain and of joy. I love the reference to "soaring with the eagles" and then "descending." We're all human and I think these lines, especially, serve to prove how "grounded" our lives really are, when all is said and done.

This is wonderfully written and positive poem. Thanks for sharing it!

Now though I think as Poppy
That I‘m on the right track

Then I think you have done extremely well, my friend; many never even set one foot on that right track.
