Taking Another Crack

A friend of mine sent me a few of her poems to read which I am afraid, despite my praise, she'll only see that I have left her drafts black and blue ( I find red ink so threatening).
Little projects, such as this, have distracted me, and inspired me, and has answered the prayer, "Father, please help me keep my mind off things." Many of you have no idea how much you have helped me. Accept a thank you, because if you are reading this- odds are- you helped without even knowing.

I am glad to have so many good friends.

Anyways, I haven't written a poem since the Spring of 2007, so I figured now- since Caleb can busy himeslf with safe tomfoolery- I'd take a crack at it again. No professor or pretentious poet-classmates scrutinising every line break and syllable, wringing you out for the details.

Just a poem. Just for me, no pressure. Whew.

Sounds wonderful, doesn't it?

I am also posting the last installment of the "Genealogy is..." series early this week. I won't let you wait. It is my favorite of the series. Next week is the challenge, and I am very excited! Stay tune!
