Sitting with my morning coffee

Contemplating the future

I know now what it is

The wounds are closed with a suture

The lady at the housing place

She was nice and kind and sweet

She helped me with initial stuff

Oh I need a cinnamon bun to eat

The second stranger I do not know

But I thank him or her for the loan

I will go to school this new year

And will get my degree, and work my fingers to the bone

The third stranger is one I will meet

Come advising time on the phone

She will help me to decide

The future which I will hone

Oh school is so daunting

But my wish will be realized

I will be writing once I am done

And paid for it , and not just idealized!
