I remember the time to build When we set a castle on a hill. I remember Jack and Jill With Will tumbling after. I remember the laughter When we all came tumbling down. I remember what came after When Will was met with a frown. I don’t know the future I don’t read minds quite yet. But history Is a patient mother Repeating herself over again. Jill will find another. Jack will take a lover. Jack and Jill Will hike the hill. This time, not together. |

Yes, very clever indeed, Jo, but isn't it sad that we tumble so many times in different directions. |

Good morning, Jo. This was a different write for you. Cute and clever, spiced with sad... It kind of reminds me of advice a mother would give her children. I hope everything is going great at work and home. luv ya, miscellanea |

Interesting, jo. I wonder what lay behind these words, what the thought process was. Well done. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
