Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

You need not ever worry.
Or express a moment of concern,
If I am going to return to you...
Anything that I have borrowed.
...

When duty calls with a specific agenda,
Why does it seem that so many...
Run in the opposite direction fast and quick.
Refusing to enlist and serve,
...

There can not be progress made,
With just one apple orchard planted.
From a variety of other delicious fruits.
Available to savor the flavor,
...

No success is created,
Without failure to face.
Or making mistakes.
To acknowledge them and recognize.
...

So many things,
Are knocking on the heads to bang bang.
With a chasing to be gang banged.
There are many things,
...

When anyone takes the opportunity,
To brag about what they've got.
With a doing to belittle and demean others.
Done to mock nonstop to amuse.
...

No it is not a bother at all.
I can not remember if it was you or me,
But...
I do believe we both agreed,
...

Put a smile on your face.
Take your food stamps and fixed income.
And be happy you have shelter...
In a warm and safe comfortable place!
...

There is a huge difference between,
Expressing one's concern...
And fostering negativity.
...

There is a right way.
And there is a wrong way.
And to proceed,
I recommend you do it...
...
