A Cherry Pit

Time continues flowing
             but very little changes
             besides location; there
             have been no provocations 
             nor much rain for even grain

             Life with out emotional pain
            would be better if there was
            somewhere to go every day and
            someone with whom to share it
            preferably with out having a fit

             Except for being happy this day
            or even once and awhile how can 
            I not sometimes feel as if a cherry
            pit that has fallen into grits?

Even today, I can sort of hear the thought, behind it. All I can say about it, at this time is, it was inspired.
