Life's Sweet Buffet

Life is a bowl of cherries With loads of luscious cream It's a pocket full of peanuts Or rowing a boat downstream! Like snapping a turkey wishbone And getting the larger piece It's much like parasailing Or no longer being obese! The soft cool breeze of summer The warm sun upon your skin A happy little birthday party Some well played violin! Like a sun drenched fun vacation A trip to the stars and back A piece of scrumptious apple pie A tasty midnight snack! Life can be about all these things Just put your cares away Ignore all those little problems Enjoy life's sweet buffet!

I am always in awe of your extremely colorful and expressive optimism. The friendliness of the voice in your pieces I believe draws in the reader and allows them to indulge in the brightness of your words. That brightness is what drew me to your compositions. Like a moth to a flame. : ) Sweet hugs and love to you! I hope you have a great rest of the week, that's both relaxing and inspiring. Also, I am looking forward to your new posts as well! Those limericks are priceless!!!! Always, Laura
