Triolet poems
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.
Stay within your newly found locus.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Don’t listen to all their hocus.
Remember when tempted, the hard battle that you fought.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.

Because I thought victory would be mine
I was over confident
I didn’t tow the line
Because I thought victory would be mine
I assumed all was fine
And I lost the event
Because I thought victory would be mine
I was over confident

I shouldn’t be here
Dwelling in the past
Shedding a tear
I shouldn’t be here
Reliving yesteryear
Thinking of things that didn’t last
I shouldn’t be here
Dwelling in the past

On this day, in the morn,
Fourty short years ago,
A tiny child was born.
On this day in the morn,
The title Mom was first worn,
And I was all aglow,
On this day in the morn,
Fourty short years ago.

September 21, 1973,
Was quite a special day for me.
It was a day like no other,
For that’s when I first became a mother.

Happy 40th Birthday to my daughter!
Independence Eve,
A time to reflect,
Upon all the freedoms we receive.
Independence Eve,
A time to stand for what we believe,
And our liberties to protect.
Independence Eve,
A time to reflect.

“Oh what am I to do?”
I hear myself begin to say.
God reminds me I need to pray.
“Oh what am I to do?”
God reminds me His word is true.
I need to trust Him every day.
“Oh what am I to do?”
I hear myself begin to say…
