Life is Like Life is like peeling an onion Each peel you pry the more you cry All of us would be Paul Bunyon That is of course, you really try Onions are good for you, you know Sliced or chopped in daily food They make you tough the rough of go And even make you slightly shrewd I’ve peeled my onions chewed them well Kept some in my memories store Cooked and fried, some taste like hell They helped me search within the core Onions and pearls both need peeling They’re as essential as a wife One gives pleasure and good feeling The other toughens you for life So wear your pearls and peel your onion Or you may end up just a Bunion |

Mr. T., I doubt that I will ever be able to look at an onion again without thinking of you!  If the intriguing layers of you were peeled away, one would discover a pearl beyond compare! Have a fabulous day, Pauly!  Linda |

huh? Now you've got me thinking...never thought about my pearls needing peeling...so, what your saying is, they're growing skin, OMG...I'd better go check them...why, they'll turn yellow, grow tarter, maybe even mold? Or, maybe peach fuzz pearls, a new fad?  Sir, I do like your carefree attitude, your ability to understand through allowance and perseverence, both in just the right balance. Cheers...(raising my cup of coffee to click yours) salute` my dear teacher/friend/poet |

I’ve peeled my onions chewed them well Kept some in my memories store Cooked and fried and some taste like hell They help me judge this world of awe Onions and pearls both need peeling They’re both essential to our life One gives pleasure and good feeling The other toughens you for strife ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I need only to look in the layers of your rhymes to find the light of wisdom and truth.  still taking care of my sis and looking for missing friends from N.O. ... but wanted to pop in and give you a *miss you winkie*  *ww*   |
