WORK  IN  PROGRESS 

At some point we realize -

we’re hoping - another reads

the story - the song - of my life.

We write it on the backs of

envelopes - but sometimes

we send it in a card or a letter.

Sometimes it’s a scribble;

sometimes it’s a song;

sometimes it’s all surprise.

At some point - we realize -

it’s not a #1 hit or a best seller -

yet we hope you read my story.

Or at least let me hear you

humming my song - the story -

the meaning of my life.
