For 'Whatever' The Reason Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

One thing I have learned not to confirm.
That would be my inabilities!
I have learned to affirm my assets.

What I thought I could not do and achieve...
Has left me speechless.
With mouth opened and eyes wide like a child.

And since my identity is secured,
With less doubt fed to myself to nurture...
I do not try to hold two conversations at once.

And I am not going to prove to anyone I can do it.
Even though,
I can do this without anyone else joining in!

And yes...I have noticed,
I have had fewer arguments these days.
For 'whatever' the reason.
