"Enter every activity without giving mental recognition to the possibility of defeat. Concentrate on your strenghts instead of your weaknesses, on your pwers instead of your problems" Paul J. Meyer


Her talents are caged birds
They sit at windows
Perched for you to see, yet
Hidden
From the world
Singing to themselves, and
Allowed only a glimpse of
The ever-wanted limelight
They dream of days flying
In sunlit parks
Before the sobering realization-
They’re behind bronze bars-
Divine, warm comfort,
They profess their soliloquies
To shadows
Returning to empty corners
