Cognition
Life is too short
for worry and strife
Those things disrupt
enjoyment of life
The things that attempt
to get in the way
Won’t block your path
unless you engage
If you stay true
to what you believe
And follow that path
your worries will leave
Strength is needed
for conquering strife
And clarity, for seeing
The good things in life.

Have you written a children’s book before? Some of your style can lend itself well to children’s literature. I love rhymes with meaningful life messages, I put some of my writing into a children’s book last year, it was an interesting experience…smiles.. I should share more of that on my blog soon.
Interesting idea- Shel Silverstein is one of my favorites. I always try to interject humor or a twist of some kind into my work if it’s appropriate for the piece.
