LAUGH OUT LOUD!!

'though it's no laughing matter.
The air we breathe supplies us with this chatter.
Hey you! It's not me that is behaving in this manner.

It's one of those things, of doing things, to get things.


     Behind my back making funny gestures?
    Corralling those who are weak to speak those

            Are you one those..people
              people who did those...things
                  to oppose words quietly spoken?
                      'not trying to oppose those
             who hear brilliant things.


'Not looking for a reasonable experience at all.
Speaking quietly,
 'not trying to let the volume of this conversation make you say-
“they say”.


Words unspoken, yet felt!
Words, spoken in a quiet whisper aimed not to upset!

You spoke in click terminologies,
trying to blur the meaning.


RAISE THE VOLUME SO IT'S CLEAR AND UNDERSTOOD!

DOOOOOooon't speak so lowwww!
It's alright to offend.
At least I’ll know where you stand- on the issues.

Don't be bland.
I can understand,
Words that weren't spoken...
Words you say you Neva said.

Music Lessons

By
Hey everyone.  As I mentioned in my previous post, I started teaching beginner piano in January 2020. 😂.  Right before the Pandemic.  At the time, I was working in a private school as a Music Teacher for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students.  It was amazing.  I still cherish those moments.  So yes, I began teaching beginner piano and quickly had 10 students from various classes sign up to learn songs and have fun while learning piano with other students.  Then the Pandemic hit! Yup, the Pandemic hit in March of 2020, and most businesses started seeing the impacts immediately.  My business got impacted too.  I went from 10 students and in-person to less than 10 to virtual.  I had to learn how to conduct business online when most others had to learn.  I had to learn how to do online school and run piano classes online while developing my music school from scratch. I recently got into youtube and am currently developing content for t...

I am writing a new Book!

    Sudoku was invented in 1979 by Howard Garns and published by Dell Publishing Company. The game became popular in Japan when it appeared in newspapers in 1984. The cutting-edge Sudoku was probably plotted by Howard Garns, a 74-year-old resigned  draftsman and independent riddle constructor from Connersville, Indiana, and first distributed in 1979 by  Dell Magazines as Number Spot (the earliest known illustration of current Sudoku). Garns' name was  dependably present on the rundown of givers in issues of Dell Pencil Riddles and Word Games that  Included Number Spot and was generally missing from issues that didn't. Tragically, he kicked the bucket  in 1989 without seeing how popular his creation had become.       The riddle was presented in Japan by Maki Kaji ( Kaji Maki), leader of the Nikoli puzzle organization,  in the paper Month to month Nikolist in April 1984 as "SÅ«ji wa dokushin ni kagiru", The name was  subseque...

It's January the beginning of a new year! A lot of people have so many things that they want to do in the new year, but as always, it's best to get it done within the first two to three months.

January comes but once a year, Comes with cheer, comes with cheer, Brings back memories of all the ware, All the ware, I credit, credit, credit, I mean, I really want to sell it, get it?
