This is Me....

This is Me....

I can love and despise in equalĀ  measure,
some things I hate, but most Ā give Ā me pleasure
Some days I look great but inside I feel bad,
a smile on my face will hide all the sad.
My halo shines bright, to dazzle the sinner
that I can become if I am no winner.
My heart on my sleeve, my feelings Iā€™ll share
but if you betray me youā€™ll see I donā€™t care.
Iā€™m clumsy and gauche and trip over my feet
but a more gracious person you never will meet
Impatient and hate to be waiting in line
but if you should need me youā€™ll get all my time.
So many things scare me Iā€™m not really brave
but loved ones in trouble I always will save
Iā€™m clever and charming , my heartā€™s made of glass
But if you should hurt me Iā€™ll just kick your ass
Iā€™m complex, Iā€™m simple, Iā€™m crazy, Iā€™m sane,
a font of all knowledge, but still a bird brain.
Ā Iā€™m lazy and busy, Iā€™m messy, Iā€™m neat
Iā€™m work thatā€™s in progress and not quite complete.
Iā€™m just who I am and some will think strange
but thatā€™s all there is and I guess I canā€™t change

Grammy! That was fantastic! You are all of those things(especially the crazy part), and more..so much more. (Please don't kick my a**, regarding that crazy crack!). Anyway, you've always been a warm, caring, wonderful Grammy to me, and I just loved reading all about you. Thank you!Ā 
Love,Ā

PS. I'm just a dork, so my autobiography poem is a lot shorter...as a matter of fact, that was it! LOL.Ā

Aw thank you my lovely ! It's quite a revelation when we start analysing who weĀ  think we are ..not always very pleasantĀ  either..there are many more facets that I could expose... but maybe I should keep those under wraps for now..too scary to reveal..even to my honorary!!And why ever would anyone ever think you are strangeĀ  my darling? strange in my book = interesting, out of the ordinary,special,unusual.... and you are always that ! xxĀ 
ps I have been off the scene for a while doing the crazy thing (well these days at least!) of holidaying for a whileĀ  in a small welsh cottage, overlooking Cardigan Bay,Ā  with limited facilities, including plumbing.. and virtually no wifi /internet/signal..back to the dark ages..but I actually loved it in many ways..although I did miss you of course ā™„ā™„

Hi Grammy,Ā 
That sounds awesome! I'm glad you had a good time. I've been accused of having 'limited facilities' at times, so I know how that is. lol.Ā 
Thank you for always being a wonderful friend on here! You are great!Ā 
I always love to see you on here because I know I have a friend in you(I sound like a Toy Story movie!).Ā 
Talk to you soon!Ā 
Love,Ā

Wow LO!!...... that was a friggin' mouthful of honesty...... and quite poetic in its rhythm and near-perfect timing.......I have to give it to you..... you ran the gamut of human shortcomings in a brave comparison to their attributes.... and found it (even more bravely) ALL existing inside yourself!!

LOL!!...... you're awesome.....I was absolutely mesmerized as I read this..... which (in this case)Ā is a sign of a truly compelling piece of poetic charm!!.......ALL STARS & PINNED!!......a fantastically fun read girlfriend!!......smokin' grooves LO!!....smokin' grooves!!......T xo ?ā¤?

Hi Tony! wow what a great critique..It's having to be brutally honest sometimes and look at the good as well as the not so good that each of us has lurking within themselves...but I guess that's what makes us who we are ..that 'Ying and Yang' thing.. and finding the right balance to be able to live our lives well....You have found it within yoursĀ  as is so evident in your wonderful writing..thank you again brother poet..xxx

Hello my lovely! so good to hear from you...Sometimes we try too hard to be what others want us to be ..but ultimately we can only everĀ  really be ..ourselves..and as Oliver Cromwell onceĀ  said..warts and all!Ā  and it's just a question of learningĀ  to love and acceptĀ  all aspect of ourselves. Thank you so much for your kind words..Lodigiana xxx
