"Think Upon Me As A Little Leaf..."

My dear ol' dad used to have a saying that we heard a LOT growing up.  You see, we were a household of female energy...it was my mom, my three sisters, me and Dad.  We tend to be a fairly outspoken, strong-minded group and my dad used to joke that he was bossed around and his opinions ignored; this is the origin of his "I'm A Little Leaf" saying.  I had to use it on my Journal Soup 3, Lesson 4 page.


"Think upon me as a little leaf,
Floating down the stream of life,
Pushed hither and yon by every
Breeze and current
Without any course of direction
Of my own..."

Cheers to my dad, The Poet.  Thanks for reminding me that it's cool to be chill on occasion.

😘
