Thank You

This is a shout out to all of the people who said my work is good I always felt as if my stuff was not being read. I felt that no one cared about what I said. so thank you. Now I am sorry if I did not comment on yours. I guess I am a tourist that way but in other ways I'm not. At least I did notice that you commented and i am truly greatful. I always felt good when someone saw my posts, so once again... Thank You.

I was lost but now I can see

Paris...
On the first day I laughed.
On the next I laughed again. 
I felt all these emotions all these feeling but the biggest was joy.
For the next six days i found out how hard it was to be a writer.
I saw the true feeling of how you had to work hard to get what you want.
Paris was where I tasted the forbidden fruit of creativity.
Where the pure juices flow now in my veins.
Paris is where I bought some cheap carrots but found my true prize of the waters where the fruit lie.
Paris is where I learned how not to be afraid of anything.
How I now know of death.
Every morning was a surprise.
You could never know what Paris would throw at you next.
The man next to me was always there helping me learn.
I watched the women with such talent that I wanted to cry.
Wandering Paris was the best thin for me.

I'm being punished

1 Whoa! You startled me. I wasn’t expecting you here.
2 It’s been a real day for expectations. Where were you? I’ve been waiting here for an hour. You didn’t leave a note or—
1 I wasn’t planning on going anywhere—
2 I can see that. Where’s your coat?
1 I left the house in a hurry. I… um… my mother…
2 The hospital reached you? God, I’m sorry. That’s why—
1 The hospital?
2 They called me when they couldn’t get you.
1 I don’t understand.
2 Your mother. You said —
1 I ran out to buy some flowers for her. She’s been so down.
2 For three hours you’ve been buying flowers?
1 And then I drove around. I’ve had… a lot on my mind. But I’m fine now. Fine.
2 You didn’t go by the hospital?
1 No. Look, I’m freezing. Let’s go inside. Why did the hospital call? Does the doctor need my signature for more tests?
2 We have to go to the hospital.
1 I’ve had a terrible—
2 We have to go to the hospital. Now. The rest of your family is already there.
1 Oh. Oh no. Mom’s all right, isn’t she? Oh, no , she isn’t. I’m being punished… she’s dead.
