When tha air gets thinned,
Things begin to draw closer together.
All the furniture in your house
Is drawn to the center of the room.
The walls buckle and cave in.
Your dog is stuck to the fire hydrant,
Yapping wildly to be let off.
When the air gets thinner,
There is no longer anything
Between anything.
Everything is joined together
Stiffly, unwillingly.
May you never be one to know
Thin air.

Ah, thin air...that's what it was when I was unwilling stuck with someone...hehehehe; Never thought that was the cause of it all! Well now I know and will definitely avoid all contact with it in the future! Very clever poem, Wendy!

Very thought provoking.. I enjoyed this very much..  

 MAY THE ROAD RISE TO MEET YOU,
MAY THE WIND BE ALWAYS AT YOUR BACK
MAY THE SUN SHINE UPON YOUR FACE
THE RAINS FALL SOFT UPON YOUR FIELDS
AND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
MAY GOD HOLD YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND

Irish Blessing
