Next time you meet a man
Think of him not as a smidge
He really is always a bridge
That ridges you to a terminus
Some to a port of bloom
Others to a place of doom
We all want to go places
For where you are now
Is not who you are
So if you climb a man
Like a bridge
Be it for a session
A season
Or a life span
Be sure to search his spur
Before you cross or crash

Lol. I hope so too. I am beginning to see why many blogs on here are award-free. It’s tempting to go that route. I do appreciate you for the nominations though. But then, the awards are costly. They take time and creativity to accept. On the other hand, they bring some life to this whole business and make the world ( and words) go round.

It’s very true! I think I’m still accepting the awards for a while, then I’ll concentrate on blogging. The process of accepting sometimes take away my free mind.
