Rise to the Challenge

March 23, 2023March 23, 2023 by wordman2022

Hard times come to all of us
And we have different ways
Of dealing with them. Some
Of us just pretend the problem
Is not there but that just makes
It worse. Others of us are like
A knight on a white horse holding
Their lance up galloping toward
Their problem and defeating it
And winning the challenge.

I’d Rather

March 10, 2023 by wordman2022

In our lives we are
Making decisions
Every day. There’s
One kind of decision
That we make based
On preference. It’s
An I’d rather this or
That based purely
On the person’s
Preference.
