Poetry Day: Magic Beans

(Not really sure where this one came from.  Darwin is mentioned, but it has nothing to do with his story.) Darwin had a bag of beans Each with a special gift The red beans made him super strong The green … Continue reading

Poetry Day: Lost Flights

(A poem about missing the creativity we had as children.  Feels like adults can’t even try to fly as high as kids.  Maturity definitely comes at a price.) I remember older days When my mind would wander Taking flight in … Continue reading
