I've been directed my whole life.
I always thought I knew what I wanted.
But now I question if its really just what they wanted.
Because the only thing I want from life anymore is happiness.
And that doesn't give me time for much else.

the rains shall bestow
the gift of flourishing growth
upon the landscape

pleated valley folds
stretched for miles unto
the far horizon

Gather round my fellow poets, please hear what I do say
I noticed very many things because I'm here each day
Here we have collections of on many varied themes
Collections for romance, collections for your dreams
Please forgive me poet friends if I'm speaking out of turn
Surely the idea of collections is to read and post the poems that we yearn
My collection is simplicity but tis swamped by other works
Yes, some of those writes are beautiful but my collectiond not there for that
And so I've had to make it private because its sinking in the flood
Sorry if I've offended some of you but that is how it is
Please add to the collections but post them in their place
Then readers who crave romance aren't searching a dark place
So I leave you with these thoughts,  the rest is up to you
But I implore you fellow post post the poem where it should go

Ooooh no I don't want that, the **** thats growing there
Oh, and why not? Surely it has a right that piece of earth to share
No it's such an ugly thing growing with my plants
No its not and you should give every **** a chance
Look at my rose, that beauty growing over there, are you telling that  that **** really can compare
Friend that rose is man made and I agree a work of art but that fair rose so beautiful from a **** did make a start
I dont agree I dont agree how could my rose have sprung from that
Oh thats quite easy friend scientists did that

But how can you just stand there and say a weeds a lovely flower
Well why not take a closer look at sometime in this sunny hour
Sorry I cant go with that its a **** its not a flower
Well I cant make you believe but every beautiful garden flower
Started life as humble **** as did the vegetables you devour
