A Sunshine Spreader

Don't quite understand The ebb and flow of reviews One day they flow in like water Next day there's just a few I don't think it's my poetry There are other forces at work Could it be just the weather Or some other unknown quirk Guess I'll just try relaxing Let things be as they may In the big overall scheme of things Our attitude makes the day So smile all you buckeroos Your faces surely won't crack You'll feel up on top of the world Happiness you'll never lack Wow what an upbeat poem Bet you're feeling a big bunch better Keep on singing those happy tunes Be a joyful sunshine spreader © Jack Ellison 2013

I know exactly what you mean Annalise. We are in the midst of selling our house and if I wasn't able to dig down into my archives, there'd be gaps in my posts too! Love and hugs xoxox

Better to be a sunshine spreader instead of a manure spreader. Great message and I see the comments are flowing in.

Sunshine?... We're getting 9 inches of snow today... Needed a little entertainment so spread the bird food on the top step at my window... My cat has bonked his head on the glass 3 times already... So much fun for so little cost.... WHAT? I'm only helping the birds?... Honest!... LOL

9 INCHES OF SNOW! You should live up here in the frozen north... hardly a trace of it left! Sometimes I wonder if you haven't bonked your head on the glass! Oops! Sorry my dear Carol... nothing personal! Big hugs, Jackers which rhymes with crackers! xoxox
