Notes About The Poem

Hi Soupers, It has been real hard to write lately. I tried to write a limerick to lighten up my mood, but my mind drew a blank. I couldn't write a single words until these random thoughts came into my mind. I share them with you. Enjoy:-) Alexis

One must always remember, someone out there has it a lot worse than you! I live by that, and when I am down and feeling blue I repeat it to myself dozens of times...Excellent write Alexis! All the best...Charlie

We may never figure this complex world out. But I focus less on the confusion and mess when I hold her hand!
