"When I feel happy, I like to spread it around, the love, the joy, the upside down frown. I like to call out loud, act like an animal-after all I am one, why not be a clown? God is for some, not for others; some prefer to celebrate Nature, Mothers and Fathers, Words make things clear at times, others it's all a muddle; God helps me plan like a football huddle."About the Author: Shaped and formed by alcoholism, along with a love for politics and service discouraged by age discrimination, Bill had a spiritual awakening in 1995, and has been on the road of truth, creativity and self-discovery ever since. Born in Pasadena, California in 1972, Bill grew up in nearby San Marino until age five. At six, his parents divorced-and from then until 12-step recovery found him in 1995, Bill turned to excessive sports and alcohol to compensate for a spiritually void life. Poetry came to Bill in his recovery life, and he founded www.travelingpoet.net to self-publish and explore passion for rare poems. His poetry and prose books are being distributed and sold in hope of stirring young people to better lives than his own.
