Silver and Gold

Here's a link to my you tube channel where I read my poetry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMvnUCN6Rmc

I teach my
little daughter about
things in the sea with
flippers, and I feel
like Neptune or
Posideon.
I can smell
the salty breeze.

Sometimes,
I feel like
I won the lottery.
Don't get me wrong,
I'm broke most
of the time, but
my life is rich with
golden memories, and
silver moments, built
one day at a time.

There are different types of wealth. I imagine there are billionaires who can't say what you've said here.

I like how you read this poem....so much feeling...I liked the other three as well...brought me back to my childhood, classmates etc.
