Another poem for your reading pleasure.

“Chocolate Croissants into Wins”

I turn chocolate croissants
Into lyrical pensants.
I make up words,
Don’t follow the herd.
I drink my cappuccino,
Then I make your mind blow,
Not hot air,
Just some fun,
Expressing and expelling worries
To renew ourselves and reach our inner Sun.

I paint pictures, like Dega,
I write about missing Ma and Pa.
I take shots like Kobe,
But I brick just like me.
I turn tears into triumphs,
I do sprints and long jumps,
And when I fall short, I simply retort
I’ll try again, after practice, with a pen,
For trial and error is the way of this sport,
And I will eventually contort my failures to wins.
