Beat of My Drum

by Cecilia A Heiskary

I'm beating to my own drum

Can you not hear the hum?

I've done things my way

And nobody had a say

When I was a young child

I was meek and a little wild

I would walk and disappear

In my own realm of the sphere

Navy days are quite the haze

I partied, went out in a blaze

Never got in trouble though

I grew and went with the flow

Civilian life, quite the shock

Had to sit and take stock

What to do with my life now?

Need to get a grip, somehow

I'm living the retired life

I'm a mother and a wife

Through it I have stayed true

Beating my drum, through and through

One of my favorite sayings is I beat to my own drum. I read a story by Esther Brown and she basically said she was a rebel. I am also. So thank you Esther for the idea.
