The Owner of a Wandering Mind


It isn’t easy

For one to write about one’s self

Perhaps because one watches others

And doesn’t carry around a mirror at all hours of the day

I

am probably a bit ornery

And I used to talk less

A lot less

Like  -I didn’t make friends-  a lot less

especially

with my nose in a book

Now though

I have more friends

And I talk more

And

I truly do love my life

Truly

And

I love to create art

my dream is to be an artist

And I love creating the creatures of wandering minds.

I don’t know how people view them

And I don’t know how people view me

But this is who I am

And I’m curious as to who you think I am?
