For 4/18 When you come to a place where the sidewalk ends...

Shel Silverstein poetry defined my childhood. I have most of his poetry books for kids and of course his classic storybook The Giving Tree. His poetry mixed silliness with art and often times wisdom. His love of children and inspiring creativity in them is sorely missed. RIP Shel.

Woulda-Coulda-Shoulda
by Shel Silverstein

All The Woulda-Coulda-Shouldas
Layin' In The Sun,
Talkin' 'Bout The Things
They Woulda-Coulda-Shoulda Done...
But All Those Woulda-Coulda-Shouldas
All Ran Away And Hid
From One Little Did.
