HARMONIOUS

HARMONIOUS

ARC © 1/27/16 Wednesday

My birth name is Mary:
sometimes when introduced -
nursery poesy alluded: contrary.

I smile and admit for me true:
proud of independent style -
walk to different drum is my cue.

However, I am also harmonious in nature:
truly love people, culture, customs –
appreciate uniqueness of separate stature.

I take off shoes visiting home with precedent:
even though I am happier with them on –
their style and preference trumps my bent.

I’m a natural talker – effusive personality:
but know when to keep silent among reticent –
some situations compliment stillness vs conviviality.

Respect for others is the dominant rule:
supersedes personal choice or ego dominance –
not to adhere to principle cultivates a fool.

This axiom always guides me to winning times:
fun, learning, growth, are never ending –
juxtaposed with creativity writing poetic rhymes.
