Poetry: Shiny and New

Shiny and New
===========================
I left with some passion
And started anew.
I’m loving this decision,
And this newfound view.

I’m off on a weekend
And I wonder what to do.
I’m sure I’ll find something,
To keep my head new.

Clueless and lost —
The place learns to do without me.
Tattered and tossed —
Their decisions are blinding.

They will survive
And make coin for their pocket;
I’ll fly higher and higher
On my shiny new rocket.

Kind of a fun, not-so-deep one. 🙂 Enjoy. – Joe
