…or you’re gonna be reading a LOT of excerpts from ME this week! 😯 Here’s a short one from my book Summer Magic. It’s the final poem in the book, wherein I get the last laugh over all the naysayers I’ve known through the years. Some of you might recognize this scenario.
Attitude Really IS Everything
No!
Yes.
You can’t!
I can.
Why?
Why not?
It’s all wrong!
It’s all right.
You shouldn’t!
I should.
You won’t!
I will.
It could be bad!
It could be good.
It’s too late!
There’s time.
You’re too old!
I’m still here.
You did it!
I did.
Summer Magic is available for download on Kindle

Thanks, Sue. It’s just a little reminder to think positively, and don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something, you aren’t good enough, it’s a stupid idea, you’re too old for it…whatever. Just DO it. You might be pleasantly surprised at how it all works out. 😀 If it slows down later in the week, you might even see another poem or two in a more serious vein. 😉

Thanks, Evelyn! It was a fun one…and believe it or not, I woke up with it pretty much fully formed in my mind. I know it isn’t long, but I could just SEE it. I came out here and wrote it down before I even had my morning cuppa Earl Grey! And I still laugh when I read it.
