Out Of Reach

Life is often tough
Still, I do continue on
Hoping to succeed
When or if that time does come
Just seems to far out of reach

Hello Sue!

Y'know, "rough" is a matter
of day to day living at times...
and the way this new year started
for me?  Sheesh!

SO....

I can appreciate this poem
more than you know.  I'm
wiping THIS first week off
the calendar.  Here's to the
New Year, beginning on 1/8/07!!!

2007 did get off to a bumpy start Sue.
Here's hoping things get better my friend.

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.

It must be the moon...cause it has been a rough first week I must agree.
Take heart Sue...things will get better.
hugs, Chris
