What Is Going on This Month

A full-moon, PMS, a relapse, a dry drunk or all of the above

Is it the full moon, PMS, a relapse, a dry drunk

Or is it maybe just that he is a punk?

There are always two sides to a story!

We tend to speak to our glory

~

Or is it something totally else

Just not meant to be foretells

of what is just not meant to be

When we aren’t the only one to see

~

Relapse, being kicked out, court

Something always going on of a sort

Not one person for all three

rather three persons, and not me

~

Grands are homeschooled

missing their friends being schooled

A friend spending time with us.

We didn’t make a fuss.

~

Attempts were made to go out

No place to accommodate, without a pout

Eat at Grandma’s and Grandpa’s place

What can I say. It is a small space

for seventeen. Let’s take it case

by case. No let’s not. Let’s just say

Love is the answer. Love rules!

~

What all goes into this. What tools

We don’t have to like everyone

all of the time. We just have to love one

and all. That is the rule, and we need

to stick to it. Look around the room

and say with your eyes, and lead

with I love you, and you, and you and zoom

it happens. With very few dislikes too.

Try this and you will see that it’s true!
