Starting To Sag

Been feeling a bit down lately Weather's a factor but it's more than that Seems my upbeat manner is starting to sag The world's in a mess, a very sad fact It's not unusual, been like this forever It's been the human condition since year one We expect if everyone tries extra hard We once again will make life fun A bunch of dreamers, that's what we are But dreaming sure won't make it so As hard as we try, it's the human condition What else can we do, I dunno Perhaps if we wake up with a smile on our face And live in our own little world It surely won't be a revolutionary approach But will keep life from coming unfurled

Hi Jack, I just dropped by to say hello. I love your words of wisdom. But tomorrow is another day. You'll smile twice. Blessings ~ Debra

That's the way everything goes as we get older. Hang in there Jack, never give up. Tom

unfurl your flag Jack, and put the world on notice you are a sovereign SOB......albeit a bit cranky at times but ruler of your upstart mind
