Simplicity

When I sit down as the story gathers

the words writing themselves before my fingers

I hear the voices and begin to learn

the beauty of their tales.

There is simplicity when I give myself over

simplicity in the words that I write

For within these songs

within these walls, you will find my soul.

The Bird who likes to Poo

T has taken an interest in my poetry. While hanging out with Auntie K on Wednesday before his doctor appointment, they created this brilliant piece of work. I however may be a tad biased.

I met a bird named Blue

He took a poo.

And than he flew

And took a poo.

Than Blue knew

He took too many poos.
