I didn't parachute into 2019, My journey started in 2018. I walked through obstacles And jumped many hurdles. I swam across mighty rivers, And was attacked by alligators. I lost nearly everything, And had absolutely nothing. of course I ran out of money, And babes stopped calling me honey. I was falsely accused And often times abused. When I became penniless, I also became homeless. There were times when I sobbed, when I got yanked and flogged. Many times I vowed to give up, But I had to continue to the top. Some days there were storms But I had to hang with both arms. At times I had no calories to burn, And obviously didn't know where to turn. So now you know how I got here, I didn't parachute into this year. IvanBrooksPoetry© 01/01/2019 #Bassapoet©

How I Got To This Year
I didn't parachute into 2019, My journey started in 2018. I walked through obstacles And jumped many hurdles. I swam across mighty rivers, And was attacked by alligators. I lost nearly everything, And had absolutely nothing. of course I ran out of money, And babes stopped calling me honey. I was falsely accused And often times abused. When I became penniless, I also became homeless. There were times when I sobbed, when I got yanked and flogged. Many times I vowed to give up, But I had to continue to the top. Some days there were storms But I had to hang with both arms. At times I had no calories to burn, And obviously didn't know where to turn. So now you know how I got here, I didn't parachute into this year. IvanBrooksPoetry© 01/01/2019 #Bassapoet©
