I Am Loved And I Belong Here

Yoohoo!
Happy Birthday to ME!


Yes, I'm +1 today and I feel really excited about it. Here, a piece of what I do best for myself.

I AM LOVED AND I BELONG HERE

Another year has come and gone, 
faster than the last. 
Here I am another year older 
and another year wiser. 
A few more beard strands 
and perhaps a wit or two. 

I am proud to be blessed 
with laugh lines from laughing. 
I enjoy my shimmering beard strands
no matter how few.

I believe that I am the equivalent to a fine wine
or a delicious old cheese. 
The older the better. 
I am thrilled to be another year older today! 

I remind myself every year 
on this special day 
that I am loved and I belong here.
I remind myself every day
how blessed I am 
to have been given another year 
to experience the wonders of this beautiful world!
To flip my pen and spill fine words
To smile a little prettier
To aim and achieve more goals
To live happier
To love deeper
To laugh louder
God is good!

I love this older me
Oh birthday, I love thee 
Happy Birthday to me!

Fiction | The Tripod Effect

THE TRIPOD EFFECT The Smiths were unable to conceive children and decided to use a surrogate father to start their family. On the day the surrogate father was to arrive, Mr. Smith kissed his wife and said, "I'm off. The man should be here soon" Half an hour later, just by chance a door- to-door baby photographer rang the doorbell, hoping to make a sale.  "Good morning, madam. I've come to...." "Oh, no need to explain. I've been expecting you," Mrs. Smith cut in. "Really?" the photographer asked. "Well, good. I've made a speciality of babies"  "That's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a seat"  After a moment, she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?"  "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the bathtub, one on the couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the living room floor is fun too; you can really spread out!" "Bathtub, living room floo...

Letter To My Son

Dear Son Try to forget that nothing waits in the dark, raise your shoulder high wave off the frea and step into that lane. Won't you rather be gone in there than stay out here playing the coward? Get up now, son everyone falls. #Pengician #SSA http://bit.ly/2haEhoj

Floating - Stefn Sylvester Anyatonwu

POEM 146: FLOATING Sometimes I feel like a piece of lead dropped in the ocean Sinking to rise no more Other times I feel like the Titanic riding on ocean waves  but a hole of flaws  bored by their quest for faults leaves me sinking to rise no more. But tonight, I feel like I'm just f      l             o a       t               i   n                    ­     g in a stream of your voice surrounded about by smiling stars touching my skin and caressing my heart. Though I fear sinking again like before I know you're waiting arms open in the ocean bed to engulf me in mindless kisses until my feet forget to flee until I make in you my home for nowhere, there is, to go when I'm floating in your love.
