Well, what would you want?

If your path in life was wide open.  

Sure you could stay in the lines.  

But, what if...

You stepped out of the line, veered left. 

What is it you really want?  

Have you thought about it?

I veered right, stopped and did a 180 to the left. 

Writing is not in the lines. 

But I do it daily.  

I want, I do, I write. 

I stopped and dipped 

More then a big toe, 

I stepped with both feet.  

I will again. 

It is just me.

    This really makes me think...if I really want to step out there and take risks...scary but freeing I'm sure.

    Good luck with testing. I'm FLOORED that you have to watch them eat lunch. That's horrible. And they wonder why teachers are burnt out... I dont know how much more I can take of this... I'm pink slipped again and I don't know if I WANT to come back...sigh

    Your words and pictures are wonderfully juxtaposed! (i never thought I'd use that word!)
    which inspires you, or which comes first? the pics or the words?
    happy w & x days!

    No, it's not just you. It's us. Writers. We're all about veering off and jumping in with both feet. In fact, I think I shall do just that tonight.

    I suspect you will, too.
