Excellent, yes, we must all find our own way and walk it with pride, a change in lifestyle can be a curve but we can adjust and still make it our own, very well written and presented****kahpot

I thought the saying was, "I'm marching to the beat of my own drum." my brother was branded a little that way, my wife brands me that way. I think a lot of people are that way, an individual, in fact in God's eyes we are all unique, I'd rather match to the beat of His drum, perhaps we just do it in our own way, beautifully written, blessings Roy

That is great and just as it should be. You've live a life being a mother and a wife, but you have always had a rebellious streak. God on you. I like that. Ulla xcx

This is a great poem about a life well lived, not in the shadow of others but in your own way to your own tune. Bad things happened but you know how to march past them and stay true to yourself. What an accomplishment!

It is very true that we remain who we are, not matter what. I agree with that statement. Thank you for sharing this well written poem and this important message. I enjoyed both.

    Nicki,

    Thank you for the wonderful review my friend.

    Crazy American :)

    Now you have 2 sayings:

    Check engine light is on
    Beating to your own drum

    Then I have a friend that is a total piece of work, cuz she's always in her own world. So I always tell her she is a party of one. More or less beating to her own drum.

Well said, Cecilia. I can understand how walking to the beat of your own drum gives you a sense of freedom and choice. I'm glad you shared a little about yourself in this well-written verse. Great job.

    Melissa,

    Thank you very much for the wonderful review. I will beat to my own drum for the rest of my days. I'm a little bit of a rebel.

    Debbie,

    Thank you for the wonderful review. Funny story I got the idea from Esther Brown. She said she was a rebel and did things her way. I said ah-ha i'm the same way and out came the poem.

    See, others can wake that muse up in you. Boy I sure wouldn't want to give Mr. Hamster a drum, he would make so much noise it would be deafening with his four little hands going. Well, that's another story. Take care. Love ya

    Charles,

    Thank you for the wonderful review. I think we all hear that drum beat in our head. I've been a rebel since I was young and ain't gonna change it now.
