Two years of a life in a nutshell
She’s gone, and now we’re worlds apart
What’s left is a hole in my heart
I know I must go on
Attempt to stay strong
And forgive, though it’s hard to restart

In a Nutshell
When you first appear on earth,
that's what they call birth.
A middle part of pain and strife
is what they call life.
And the final part, my friend,
is death. That's the end.

LIFE IN A NUTSHELL
Sugar and spice, sweet in dice,
Salt and pepper, melt the vice,
Honey and mint, dreams entice,
Lemon and lime, tangy, precise.
Tickle, fickle, whims unshackled,
Wobble, stumble, life detangled,
Giggles, whistles, sassy angled,
Whirls and twirls, elements sandaled.
Tom and Jerry, amuse the ferry,
Popeye sails in waters merry,
Olive Oyl, with charm so airy,
Is life a small wonder, fleeting and legendary?

Jack's Philosophy In a Nutshell
Here's Jack's philosophy in a nutshell
Did you catch that, in a NUTshell?
Got a little bit off the track for a while
But he's chugging along again like hell
Didn't think it would be too too long
He's basically a real jester at heart
Things always seem to strike him funny
Like when someone lets out a big fart
His LOCOmotive's chugging

LIFE IN A NUTSHELL
Now that I've reached
The ripe old age of eighty-six
It's all clear to me now
What life is all about
WE'RE BORN
WE struggle
WE become old and cranky
THEN WE DIE... SIMPLE?
LOL

Saskatchewan In a Nutshell : Celsius Edition
If you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes
Why live in the prairies? We have our reasons
At -50 you might say we hit our limits
Few places in one day, do you see all 4 seasons
Why live in the prairies? We have our reasons
Snow in June, and t-shirt weather in December
Few places in one day, do

In a Nutshell
My Father’s house is a super nova in a nutshell.
It is any concept of awesomeness, comfort, and joy
mind can create.
Choose any kind of mansion,
and as many extra rooms as you wish;
possibilities being infinitely possible
Infinitely abound.
If these words were not so,
He who prepares you a welcome mat
as endless as the endless universe
would have told you so.
So

My Father’s house is an infinite resort,
a little cottage with garden, a super nova
in a nutshell of heaven. A mountain to climb.
It is any concept of comfort and joy

is in you and it is all

In a Nutshell
Seasons pass away little by little
time moves hour by hour
Within your branches, your hearth of leaves
I wait in patience, moment by moment
years turn decades, nurtured in hope
rolling in your epochs of excitement
murmuring in your sighs of endowment
Yes, at last... the first acorn is born
nestled in your sturdy arms, I hang on
