13. Poem in English "Never Trouble Trouble" by Fannie Windsor
Listen now
Description
The title of this poem is a fairly well-known saying in English, but how many know that the saying comes from a poem? Do you know that it comes from a poem? I'm personally that guy who always sees the negative. I wish I was more like the woman, the man's wife (presumably) who slept soundly, "waited to see", and didn't look for problems before they cropped up. So, the reading is more a public reminder to myself to hold my tongue when tempted to blurt out all the negatives that might be but haven't yet manifested themselves (and may very well never come to be).  Never Trouble Trouble by: Fannie Windsor --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/slowbydesigns/message
