A Middle Child Club

I'd like to start a middle child club for all those kids who got stuck with the rub. For those who received the lesser end of the stick, when the flames of love were burning, they were left with a short wick. I'd like to shout out to that middle child who found love thru others, that they should feel proud. For going beyond their birth families allowed them to experience how loves supposed to be. I'd like to acknowledge that middle child who wouldn't settle for disparities, allow their emotions to become beguiled. They didn't wallow in hurt feelings nor become a sad sack, for they learned how to love others beyond their abilities to love back.

Good one Nancy, my middle daughter tries to make out she's hard done by but she doesn't do too badly. Tom
