My True Talent Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

My True Talent



Let me put this in perspective for you.
Are you ready?
This journey began in 1952.
I was 5
When I announced I needed to take lessons,
To pursue my ambitions.
There was no 'stage mother'.
No overindulgent father.
There were gifts given to me by God.
And I knew it!
Just like I do today.

Does that clarify my arrogance for you?

Either way...
I still feel obligated with a patience,
To continue to tolerate your ignorance.
And 'that' is my true talent!
A blessing that curses and irritates me both.
But God knows where I would be...
Without Him, Her or IT and patience.
