- Go to A Chance For A Venture
I loved this Sam!
In these turbulent times: risk, venture, gain and loss have become an integral part of our vocabulary. I never watched the economic bulletins in the past but now i find myself listening with interest. Your poem took those dry and dreaded words and gave them a new life and the layout was beautiful.
Great work

You have touched on something here
It's just how it feels with my publishing ventures. i liken it to a tightrope walk. You must stay on the rope, for it's a long way to fall. Love the look of this work too!

Very impressive layout Shelly; how did you do it? The poem reminded me of something that a Danish philosopher Søren Kirkegaard wrote about how to dare to do something made you feel for a split second you were losing everything, but not to do dare was the same as losing your entire life.
