Comfort

From birth to demise,

Problems arise,

Physical defects,

mental rejects.

Change, your mistaken,

Just be yourself.

Everyone else is taken.

on a board on our veranda to remind me daily.  D.

Thank you Maureen. The last 2 lines belong to Oscar Wilde. I have it on a board on the veranda. It reminds me daily. God Bless. D.
