FAITH
Life's journey is never certain
Faint of heart doomed to never win
Bravely begin Boldly stride
Conquer fear with much to gain
Never quit never complain
Through rough terrain let God guide.

As once said first stanza is gifted by God
I’m typically not spiritual at all , but I’m getting old and it never hurts to hedge your bets. Hope you might read from yesterday
TWO VOICES THAT WE FEED.
It’s an attempt to open up my “style” which admitedly lacks the excellent diversity displayed by yourself and Neville. You guys are pretty much the only poets I admire look forward to an excellent read over and again.
Much energy from thou is a gift.

I would expect nothing else from a creative and wise soul to encompass all experiences-Poetry and Prophecy is a good read by Chadwick Kershaw if you’ld like to take a first or second look-As to your gracious compliments about my poetry, it set such high bar, that I hope that my future attempts don’t disappoint-Respectfully.
Michael Jordan once said about game winning shots- anybody can be bragging about a shot they hit, but the real challenge is when you miss that big shot is to have the courage to ask for that ball the next time when there’s more pressure, that’s what marks true greatness and will.
You are now part of my Collection.

CORRECTION
Aware, your destiny twisting, diluted existing, spiritually drifting, resisting denial you acknowledge it's their trial , THEY, now perpetrators disowned , Alone, always shallow stepping life's miles.
You Shed Them.

Simpatico,
Adorned in Hats,
Adoring Her Tats on Those Silky Gats Should Matter Not,
Cuz Sustenance Seeps Thru
Her Duchess Smile.
It Is Priveledge!

COLLECTION
Triangles that I see
Prism view is my reality
It unravels past complexity
The people I have
next to me
Are all the reason
I need to be

Any basketball anecdote is welcome, I will borrow this one as my household is all about basketball -especially that you have Chicago bragging rights-
I can’t wait to read your basketball diaries-I’m grateful to witness your creative process and to be a fan of your work, sir.
Neat. I wrote MJ’s name on a coaster and shoved it in my wallet when I witnessed him miss a shot from the top of the jey and suddenly a hand above the crowd at the basket guided that Miss into the rim and landed like on pillows, when I realized the put back executed was by the guy who missed that shot and it seemed in defiance of all norms. The day before the Bulls drafted MJ I begged and borrowed just enough to buy 4 season tickets and kept them for 16 years. Saw Mike play in person over 400 times and once talked to him for awhile about ping pong. No matter the hype associated with the MJ mystique it could never exceed what was REAL. What was a series of superhuman like feats when I tell the stories they sound like a lie.
This one is sure a “winning” basketball diary and he too wouldn’t accept any less-We were watching LEBRON at the west semifinals last night and I was hoping that this gladiator and all the lions go home proud and the emperors fall off their VIP boxes: just kiddin, just sayin…
Good write Bobby.
.... without doubt, all is lost without it
Powerful. Right on man.
