Notes About The Poem

Wooly

Why do you try to pull the wool over my eyes?
Others can see your own hypocrisy 
Often telling blatant lies 
Life is for living, 
You need to get a life!

Jan, I think this fits quite nicely with the wool theme, and I can think of a few people we both know that would fit this description. Good one!

Jan Allison

Thanks Linda I am able to express my emotions through my poetry - not sure Chase will see it as being apt for the 'wool' theme but I have to go with the flow of my pen and beleive me it was good to write this one:-) hugs Jan xx
