Unexpected detours

Find welcome

Avenues to explore

Which gives way

To a new way

To look at the world

Expanding minds

Strengthening hearts

Bringing ease

Of commonalities

Towards each other

-Jennie Nawrocki

Rarely when you are reminded

That you are not the only one

It gives solice of comfort

Of being needed

Just for being you.

-Jennie Nawrocki 

The holidays are here

Spending time

Wondering how to

Make everyone

Have completely 

A phenomenal one

We do it because 

We care and love

Others today and forever

-Jennie Nawrocki 

I asked

Teach me

I begged

Teach me

I screamed

Let me know

I cried

Tell me how

I offered reason

And compromise

I will listen

More attentively

But yet

No your not allowed

Is the most ridiculous

Thing to say

To any student

Who really wants

To learn

-Jennie Nawrocki

I hate eggs and personally it is the only time I don’t feel even a tinge of regret using the word hate.  For one the I am not hurting anyone by saying it including the designer of the egg, being the chicken and the rooster.  I say that because they are most likely ecstatic that I would prefer not to eat their future offspring. So be careful when using the word hate, it hurts.

-Jennie Nawrocki

I have dreamed

Of a future 

For I lost my way

At least some

People think

However inside

What is left

When all else

Is full of obstacles 

Knowing the truth

Is my one solice

And if that is

All I have

Then love

Should come

And give comfort

-Jennie Nawrocki

Will you discover

The future 

You want

Filled with

Dreams thought

Unattainable?

Will you sleep

In calm

Knowing tomorrow 

Might bring excitement?

Will you breathe 

Easy in air

You sustained

Free of nasties?

Will you 

Give effort 

Even though

It might not matter?

Will you be

The one to make

Someone else’s

World blissful?

-Jennie Nawrocki

Separating events is hard these days.  

Time to breathe.

Take deep breathes everyone.

-Jennie Nawrocki

Very complicated

On how 

Things got so convoluted

Into the craziness

Experienced by

Everyone participating

But yet

Not given the same respect

Respect is earned

Though some people

Think it is a given

Regardless of how

They treated you

Behind your back

Or even right

In front of you

You want me to like you

Treat the janitor 

And the president the same.

-Jennie Nawrocki

Now why shouldn’t you

Go and be what you wanted

Now why shouldn’t you

Tell your family every day you love them

Now why shouldn’t you

Try something new

Now why shouldn’t you

Apologize for misgivings 

Now why shouldn’t you

Start today 

-Jennie Nawrocki
