POEM 37 CHANCE

She stood there waiting to dance

This really isn’t about romance

I thought; why not give it a chance

My dance skills are somewhat lacking

She was kind and didn’t send me packing

As we danced in grand style around the floor

I was happy, hungry for more

Dancing is a gateway to happiness

It brings out the best in all of us

POEM 38 A DAY

A cool morning devoured by the ascending sun

The first task will soon be done

As we cross items off, we feel we’ve won

Many opportunities for the day

Getting much accomplished feels like play

Few setbacks, tomorrow is another day

Each day, I set aside time for fun

Each day, I welcome the sun

Each day marks progress towards the goal

Each day, I refuse to sell my soul

I would say, for the most part my life has been low key, but I do have some experiences not everybody has. I graduated from the University of Washington with a Business degree majoring in accounting. I have worked for two of the components of the Dow Industrial Average index. I was briefly a member of the 1% club and misplaced my membership card. I have ridden motorcycles, wrecked a 40’ boat, had a 36’ boat destroyed in a marina fire and spent two weeks in court being sued for $500k (I won). As a self-employed builder, I built over 300 homes and had 20 people working for me. I still have a couple of dragons to slay, this blog being one of them.
