    Poem Commentary

    I wrote this after someone told me what I should write about. So I took his suggestion and tried something different. It's a little rough, I know, but I feel strongly about this subject, because if we were all the same, it would be a very boring world, and we really wouldn't have anything to talk about, to write about and that would be a shame. So be you, and don't let anyone tell you to be.

    some people say

    Some people say how to be;
    to do this or do that,
    try to mold you,
    sculpt you to be like them.
    We each are original,
    cannot be shaped
    like a vase by the wheel.
    I just say be you,
    be what is that makes you
    don't let no one
    tell you how to be.
    Only one person is right about
    how you should be
    only one person can tell you
    what you are.
    You, my friend, is that only
    person, the only one
    to tell you to be.

    You seem to have the right idea about life. Your daughter is in good hands. I have told my son those same ideas and he turned out alright. The poem reads well and just seems to flow along. You do have a way with words.
