Life is for the living
Death will soon enough come
Life is for the living
Not a time to feel glum
Life is for the living
I needed a little nudge
Life is for the living
It's not something you can fudge
Life is for the living
A time to feel alive
Life is for the living
We've really got to thrive
Life is for the living
It's best done with our full heart
Life is for the living
So let's all make a start
Life is for the living
Children need us at our best
Life is for the living
Night's the time to rest
Life is for the living
I have said my piece today
Life is for the living
Let the nonsense go away
Life is for the living
Something we all need to consider
Life is for the living
Let's decide what to get ridder
Life is for the living
There are diamonds in the rough
Life is for the living
Let's find 'em when it's tough
Life is for the living
It's true it's what you make it
Life is for the living
Let's nurse it and not break it
I had a good old moan yesterday. Yes it was ME. I moaned that I wasn't a Britax Mumbassador, that I wasn't invited (nor welcome) to the Drayton Manor screening of the new Thomas film. It was all a bit woe is me. But the thing is, both had limited numbers and there are about 6k active Mummy Bloggers, so if I watch every opportunity that passes me by, I will be one unhappy lady, so the above poem was written after getting a nudge from reading Victoria's rather apt post, and mainly because that was yesterday I felt like that, and today, after all, is a new day.

DeleteI just love that!
ReplyDeletethanks and for your email - hope you returned to read the second half LOL x
DeleteOh bless you, I never meant to direct my post at anyone in particular!! Just lots of different people and, if I'm honest, I didn't realise you had been moaning!! Great poem from you though and I am so glad I inspired you. Thank you so much for linking to Prose for Thought xx
ReplyDeleteOh I know, but the timing was so me, I thought what the hell, but it was only a day of me feeling sorry for myself x
DeleteAh it does you good to have a moan. Glad you're brighter today.

ReplyDeleteGlad the poem lifted your spirits - it did mine too, writing it.
