Hi Everyone,
The Pesky Poet here, sorry for missing a few weeks. Some amazing poems above and I look forward to reading others below.
My poem deals with dyslexia. I am dyslexic and was once told the writing world was not for me. I believed that for years until one day something just clicked and since then I have never stopped writing. I hope you enjoy the poem.

I am a work in progress in the fitness journey and I look for motivation from wherever I can get it. This is my effort to give back to someone who is probably looking for that inspiration.
