PAPERBACK
The Randomness of Me
A collection of poetry and prose for today and everyday
The universe is big.
We are small.
It is all too easy to get lost
in the immensity of it all,
caught up in everyday
living.
But if we pause for a few
seconds, breathe deeply
and look around we may
just notice how amazing
this universe is.
How each and every one
of us are unique within the
chaos of the heavens.
The Randomness of Me
is a reflection of lived
experiences from one of
these unique, random,
small beings in this big,
amazing universe.
