A Summing Up

My younger years were not ones of acclaim

nor have I tasted yet a day of fame.

And though I’ve waited years for just one change

I just don't feel there's one within my range.



Sometimes I think I'd like to run away

And this increases more so, day by day.

But let's admit it, I'm a realist.

For if I left I don’t think I'd be missed.

Once upon a time I had a "bad-hair" day... But then, haven't we all???

Richard,
How apt today. When I rose from my bed I said: " Oh my God!, I look a wreck, another day where I won't be missed."
How true your words are and how ideal that I come to your hall and this is the first of your work today I see. Yes, we all have one of these "bad hair days". LOL. Thanks. Linda
