"The Right Turn"

Life as it turns out, is a Beautiful Journey
No need to make a u-turn back to a rocky road
Road Blocks are made out of
Center Blocks that try to block the Center of Life
Kiss you goodbye to never look back
I made the Right Turn to
A Beautiful Journey called Life -Sjo

Tuesday

Never too Young to Learn

In a Nest sits a baby bird
Looking down trying to find Guidance
Falls from a Tree
Mother Bird has flown away
Baby bird left alone
On her Own, she learns how to Spread her Wings
Flapping & finding courage to Fly
Never too Young to Learn....

-Sjo

"The FUTURE of Poets" Crew Member-"Ace"

Ashonda "Ace" Warner was born and raised in Queens, NY. She was always an avid reader, and loves to play with words. In her early adult years, she would write poems sporadically until she became consistent with it. You can find her writings in C.H.O.I.C.E.S. Magazine- a Christian Magazine, The CornerStore Magazine, and of course in The Poets' Pot. Encouraged by her friends and family, she finally started performing her poetry in The Poets' Pot.

Stick around to see what the Poets Pot has cooking, its sure to be good!
