Less than Festive

My mood has not been jolly,
nor has it been merry or bright.
If I go to bed and lay my head,
then maybe menopause won't bite!

It comes as no surprise that I fail to comprehend the feminine essence within the lines of this poem. However, as a work of art, it gleams with the brilliance of articulate language and vivid imagery, Miranda.

I've been grumpy lately, meaning yesterday was really grumpy. Finally last night when I wrote this I was simply tired. Maybe its menopause and more likely its just a woman thing that we are moody from time to time.

Ha. Love it. Menopause never bit me , thank heavens. But it's long gone, wherever it was

I don't think I am going through a turbulent menopause. There are a few moments when I am moody and on edge, but that is a life long part of being a woman, I mean right.
