HAVE you ever heard of sluggard being famous? Probably not. Have you heard of someone who didn’t like to read but still became famous? Yes. Did a story cross you ear of someone who people thought nothing good could come out of? Of course! People such as Martin Luther King Jr., John Jay, Theodore Roosevelt, James Madison all became important milestones in the history of America. And all because of a book.

To Be Here

To ride a horse when the moon is high,
down the street, to the patriots cry
Oh, how I wish it were I,
with the wind in my face on a midnight ride

To run through the streets with a fist in the air
just trying to right the things so unfair
oh, how I wish I'd been there
with loud cries of 'strike!' ringing through the whole square

To walk through the forest with a bow in my hand
wandering free, at one with the land
Oh, I really do think it'd be grand
to sing with the trees as through them I ran

Strange Things Were Happening

Strange things were happening. Well, not exactly strange, I suppose, but unusual. Abnormal maybe, but not exactly strange. No, definitely not strange. Different, odd, out of character? Perhaps. By now you may be wondering who I am, no? I am a voice, the voice that is to tell your story today.
Might I begin with a gooday? Well then, gooday.
