Find a Way

We’re not all blessed
with smarts and skills
some of us
have got the looks
but not the brains
some of us
have got the brawn
but not the balls

It’s not easy
but somehow
we have to
find a way
to all get along
to keep our cool
and hold our tongue

I am one that didn't get the brain, but did get the looks... that is the only thing that saved me :) Like the poem

LOL I am convinced you are shortchanging yourself, Eve. Nice try, but I'm sure you are not fooling anyone. Line xx

I love it that you threw in the teensiest bit of raunchy with the word balls; you are such a lady, this delighted me, Line. Your poetry always delights me actually. Happy weekend my friend!

Thank you so much for your visit and comment, Caren. I can't imagine balls not being in most dictionaries by now.
