What I learned from LA

Raised in the south, Tennessee and proud to have that opportunity. Los Angeles is to this date the city I lived the longest. "Can't take the country out of this gal" yet the invaluable life transformations to which were integrated and understood came from that move back in 1998. One of the best moves I ever made besides taking refuge to grandparents from a home of carnal abuse.

Yet to be edited~ Only 1st rough draft~~ Was inspired after just listening to Bob Dylan.. heehaw~~ Laugh Loudly Please! Love Light!

"What I learned from LA "

How to layer and look
To finish reading a book.

Autobiography of a Yogi
And drink lots of herbal tea.

Recognize bullshit
How much pollution cars emit.

How to practice discernment
And what wasn't a present.

Smell a preditor
At the door.

How to walk a way
And not be afraid.

How To be scared
And stay away from the wierd.

How not to be rude
Through the dance of lewd.

Keep my head high
Allow myself to cry.

A walk the other way~ Good bye LA~

To a larger wingspan
And no more Disneyland

Wish you well
For in my heart you dwell

To visit you with respect
And miss you
I always will!

For you taught me to grow
Lifting off now to and fro

Bringing with me your warm glow~
I bid you a gentle hello as I let go~
