I love to read
And I love to write
I like to be whimsical
But never mean nor contrite.
I read what is written
Every word they say
Doesn't matter black or white
Straight or gay.
Yes there are times
I may not agree
But I keep an open mind
For that is important to me.
I avoid being rude or mean
I take people for who they are
My friends that are close by
And those that live afar.
All opinions are important
Each and every line they say
Maybe I will meet some of these people
One fine and sunny day.
Maybe we'll sit on my front porch
Spend the day, shoot the breeze
And when it ends we stand, we hug
Saying "come back any time you please".
My heart is my house
You are never alone
For as long as I have a house
You will always have a home.
