There's Tomorrow (I Hope)

I was set to post a blog today
Then saw the note that said one more day
I've finally mastered a comment or two
And say hats off to POETRYSOUP

Since I've moved my computer been in a glitch
Nothing I'd do would heal it's itch
Then poetrysoup had their big spill
And all of my dreams went down hill

Yesterday, I really got mad
And ran a program I didn't know I had
When it came up with 42
My heart was broke, my computer was through

Or so I thought

I read a little farther and there I found
A whole bunch of things they said made it unsound
I grited my teeth and said what the ------ well
Marked all of the spots and punched the bell

When all was said and done
It said it had taken care of 71
I thought than what is left
I wrote an e-mail and it was blessed

Today I got back to you
And wanted to write a blog too
But a note said not right yet
So I wrote this poem for you instead

I just think of the problems I've had
And bow my head in shame
For if I had had the problems like poetrysoup
All our dreams would go up in flames

So I'll wait a few more days 
Knowing I'll write a blog soon
And until then if I get anticy
I'll do what the cow did and jump over the moon

Me and you both, sweetie. At least you vented by writing about it. My artwork was lost, when I tried. Now I have to start over. Sigh... This was very honest and well written. Things will be running normal soon, I pray. Love, Ivy

Beautiful tribute to our soup here and so wonderful to read you as always. Been having trouble commenting on you last few days. Hope this goes through. The other day the sky was magnificent with fluffy multi-dimensional clouds and I thought of you and your last poem. Have a great weekend Cile. Love & hugs, Shar xoxo
