Please Do Not Rule Me

Please don’t ramrod your rules to me
I am a hippie woman, wild and free 
I truly want to treat you kindly
Enjoy your should’s I say to thee

But I am not rule oriented, you see
Which explains my gorgeous flexibility
I will invite you to a scone and tea
But please don’t bring your rules with thee

I may not be a "hippie woman," Caren, but I certainly agree with this poem. I don't want to live by anyone else's rules, as I have enough personal ones for me!

I have enough for everybody; but I do not share them.
