I have two life long friends that are the world's worst givers of the lot!
One is Time he takes back too quickly what little that I got!
The other one is Gravity she keeps trying to give me more to carry!
Between the two, things are looking a little scary!
This poem is dedicated to my other old friend Metabolism. We used to run the streets together, but now days she is feeling a little sluggish and down. I think she needs a doctor. I am hoping she has a quick recovery.
P.S. I have another friend named Menopause, but that is another poem all together.
Different sides of the ocean and we have friends with the same names - hows that for coincidence? (Although i'm not too fond of the last one, she can be a bit shirty)
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence indeed! I guess it is a small world...lol :-)
ReplyDeleteTime...he's not generous with me either...:)
ReplyDeleteLove this!

ReplyDeleteOh, Carrie, this is absolutely hilarious!! Ya just gotta keep laughing about it all......
ReplyDeleteThese poems all took me by surprise and gave me a good chuckle this morning, Carrie. And the pictures definitely 'complimented' the words!
ReplyDeleteCarrie,

Thank you for sharing these wonderful words..
