My Thoughts On Life

This is a collection of some of my thoughts on what I have seen and lived so far in my life. Hopefully, somewhere in here is an inspiration for others to do likewise or maybe examine how things are going in their own lives. I try to make people think a little, and then maybe they'll be willing to admit some things are fun in life, even though we seem to trudge through daily. My poems will hopefully make people smile and laugh, and maybe sometimes cry. Just like a good novel, these poems are here to touch and enjoy. 

Hello, my name is Kelly Hayenga. I am a middle-aged man who loves to write poetry, to express myself and for the enjoyment of others. I have long written poems for people for many different occasions. I love to make people think and smile by what they read. I draw my inspiration from the things around me and my life to this point, hence the title, "My Thoughts on Life". It is but a small collection of my musings on how life can be spent. If I have made a few people think a little, and or cry, then it is a job well done.
