Notes About The Poem

Short List To Smile Away Your Mistakes

To err is human, to forgive take mine,

A mistake is a correction in reverse,

Think positive and you will not blow a fuse,

If you love fresh grapes, then you will hate sour wine,

Don't cry over spilled milk, unless you were under it,

13 is bad luck, especially if you have 13 pork chops and fourteen guests,

When angry, don't increase your volume but increase your knowledge, it's rain that grows flowers, not thunder

To see a rainbow, you have to live through a storm

My older brother was always smarter than me and he's a moron

FINALLY,

Iliescu, oldest woman at 67 years old--short of a week--gave birth.
