Poems from brooklyn6timesplus
This is my description of myself and my poetry. My name is Brooklyn Six aka The Brooklyn Six Project. I was born on Monday, August 26th 1974 in New York City. I graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in June 1992. I served in the United States Navy for nine years. While in the Navy I have lived in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Portland Or, and Seattle. I currently live in Lynnwood, Washington about twenty miles north of downtown Seattle. Poetry is my written medication whenever I feel stressed about something. All of my poems are about life, love, happiness, sadness, triumph, and tragedy. Hopefully, i will be able to captivate others with my poetry. Take care everyone.
Wisdom and knowledge are there
Just reach out and grab it
Never stop learning
Continue to make yourself legit
Have a sharp mind
And lift...
The kids are off the streets
There are new lessons to learn
They are back at school once again
To feed their brains in order to earn...
Another morning has broken
We rise to face another day
Opportunity presents itself
More challenges will come our way
This is where we learn...
Always take that step forward
Move towards the light
Escape from the dark clouds
In order to make your world bright
The choice is yours...
Utilize your words
To uplift and empower
Always encourage
Every minute and every hour
Promote the positive
Be willing to give back
Be that...
