Unexpected answers came today
Telling you exactly what needed to be done
………..and why
You've been trying so hard to make it fit
Make it work……………when it didn't
When it couldn't
When it shouldn't
When you didn't really want it to
…………anyway
so simple really
just had to find your way to the door
it wasn't locked
you didn't have to knock
only walk through………….
And when you did
Ahhhhhh and when you did
The answers were there.

Yes, yes! So much said in so few words.  Even I have to remind myself from time to time of your message.

Take care,

It is nice to find the answers so unexpectedly after searching so hard for them and then realizing that maybe with a little more calmness the next time it won't be so stressful.  Wonderful write and an excellent bit of wisdom for us.

SEA--I like this muchly, so impatient are we to find the answers sometimes logic is lost as we search, when really our approach is the key, and this poem expresses that truth wonderfully...Excellent writing.
