Since the beginning of this blog I have tried to have a weekend poetry post. Some of the poems tie right into mental illness, other poems remind me of better times and a few poems just make me smile. I hope you enjoy this poetry collection and I am always looking for new poems to share with the readers of this blog. Take Care.
