Twenty years,
She has done her job so well,
All the while
Friendly smile
That she’s painted on her shell.
There each day
It’s her way
To never complain or whine
But to be
Still cheery
No matter what’s on her mind,
Twenty years
And that song still makes eyes swell.

Good write Gloom.

(big hugggssssss) I too know that feeling where you work your day-job for so long with that same perdonality and you always wonder if they truly have that natural cheer or underneath the mask there may be a sorrow or ache defined! (sigh) This is well-said, sweet friend, I love how you think, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Aszard, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thank you, passing shadows,
Just used to? I guess that’s better than I,
That never was able to keep a continual cheery nature.
Pleased you enjoyed

Thank you, Seymour Tabin,
Memories can do that, Glad you enjoyed

Thank you, Enchantress,
I don’t know what she was listening to that caused the swelling of tears,
Perhaps if I go back that way, I might ask.
But for different people it’s a different song,
The tune changes but the emotion stays the same.

Thank you, Mistletoe Angel,
Your words are always a delight to see in response
Not all love how I think, but I am pleased my words are pleasing
To you.

there are several songs I hear from longer than 20 years ago though, that bring me to tears with their memories.
But I guess eventually there will be new songs to take their place.

nicely done
