Tit For Tat

Life has lots of give and take; That’s just where it’s at. If you ask for favors Then expect in no time flat, You’ll find the ball back in your court – A simple tit for tat. Those we’re close to are exempt. Then a welcome mat Is always waiting there for you; No need for standing pat. But in every other case, The norm is tit for tat.

I try to be all things to all people – within reason, I mean. If you give an inch to some, they want a mile. To answer your question, no I wrote my poem for no one in particular, but know people who like that. Many thanks for stopping by. / M

If only it was like this for everyone Ilene, I've found from bitter experience with my hubbies cancer that friends are more reliable to help you out than family who expect you to be there at the drop of a hat but don't reciprocate when you need help:-( hugs Jan xx
