It Is What It Is

11/28/16 Thrive survive and live It is what it is A day of nothing or success using sieves Carbonation in the soda pop making it fizz Distinguished areas for hers and his Individuals involved or infatuated with the showbiz Don't get in a tizz Some just take and or give The planet spins Life with cartilage and fins swims Strikes, splits and gutterballs in lanes with bowling pins Rooms for rent available at inns Breath mints in tins Boys and girls occasionally born as twins Music made with all instruments even violins Sports and games played with javelins At church they'll sing hymns Sometimes you'll need a membership to certain gyms Whole milk, soy and skim Going out on a limb And off a whim You either lose draw or win Even if it's only by a smidge Another opportunity and day begins Going from light to dim Above and below the ridge On either side of the bridge Help out your kin Especially when times are grim Low to high bids Placed on items Waters fished for nearly everything, including squid Due to road conditions, speed and a loss of control, the car slid Around the corner and the tires started to skid Recently or way back when People have disappeared off the grid No idea all that you or I have did And the same could be said for where we've been By: Dalton Ogletree
