Читать книгу Observations of a Warrior Poet - T. John Mattson - Страница 5

Preface

When I began writing, I was exposed to various types of poetic styles and even dabbled with just a few haikus:

Chances

Opportunity…

Knocks, anybody in there?

No one home…just air.

Courage

Risk…we all can feel

Fear, is it truly for real?

Face it…with true zeal.

Muscle Cars

Loud…raw horsepower

Pinning your back to the seat,

True, you can’t be beat.

Additionally, I thought of including some of my brief philosophical notions that would come to me on occasion, and I hope that those reading will enjoy.

 “The funny thing about people that always ‘have your back’…They seem to be always behind you.”

 “I don’t normally think of myself as being stupid…But I’ve been wrong before.”

 “The first million dollars I ever made,Was on business I turned away.”

 “If one wishes the fullness of respect…Then one needs the emptiness of contempt.”
