I have always enjoyed the winter Olympics a lot. Ski jumping and curling being my favorite events.

American people hear me now, The time has come to make a vow, Within our borders, there is a storm growing, Nameless faces, never showing, The time is now to make our stand, And one day our children will understand, The fight we fight, is fo
When I put together this list I used the billboard top 100 list as I listened to Casey Kasem back in the 80's. I limited myself to the top three songs for each year, many years barely had three, and others had less than that. PSY's Gangnam Style has been my most listened to on the list.

A sonnet for peace in this world in our lifetime.

Abstracts about life and maturity.
A friend Morgen:0) told me this would make a good poem. Thanks I hope you agree lol:)

It's sad...
Well here we go once again we have major breaking news, Yet we prefer to hear about the Miley Cyrus boos. Going to strike another country when ourselves can't see, Cause its set to the side of the start of football sounds weird to me. Or is it..
So many times the ones you should be able to count on are part of the problem
Just pondering where people live and where they move to. We have certainly had our influx of new people in my small town, I can't say it is for the better.
