You are so right, Sandra. It never fails to amaze me how many emotions can fill one head in the space of a few hours, sometimes going from elation to despair and back again with the wink of an eye. As you say, it only takes a look around us to get back the balance, especially if the words we might read rhyme as well as your delightful poetry! Alexis x

Sometimes we expect too much of ourselves.
Soemtimes we just need to be ourselves and not try to be perfect, but just accepting of who we really are...

Relax and enjoy life one day at a time...

Nicely written!

    Thank you, Doc Holiday, for your lovely review. I totally agree with you, perhaps if we did stop worrying about the little things, we would feel better in ourselves. xsx

To the author of Human Nature, Are you looking in my windows? I put my foot in my mouth all the time and for sure, then I want to cry. But there's no crying in my drama of life anymore. I just let things glide over my head and ignore the unnecessary hurtful things in life. Your poem is easy to read and well written with much knowledge about human nature. Carole

    We do live in a hurtful world and it is good to be able to let it float over your head. I think most of us have to suffer until we have sorted out what are the important things in our lives and what needs to kicked out. Thank you for this really nice review and the very king comments.xsx

Clever rhyme for each stanza telling a story of response of a few measure of life positive and negative areas of reaction. The art on display is very informative of an adventure gone forward. Repeating the idea at the end of the passage was a good idea for the poem cycles back to the beginning.

This is really an excellent piece on 'human nature'. I now myself I have always been a bit of as crier, and I do find I cry more now, in private, but I am very lonely and I was never meant to be this lonely. I'm content enough, not depressed...like you say it is human nature.

I enjoyed reading this today and it made me think...and that could be really dangerous LOL

    Dinah, I am so pleased you liked this one, but I was so sad to find you are so lonely. I agree with you, you were not meant to be lonely, I can tell that in your writing. You are such a warm hearted lady, and although we probably will never meet, I feel I know you enough to call you my friend. There is nothing wrong with crying, it is a way of healing. Take care, Sandra xsx

The triple rhyming lines make this one effective, easy to read, and the message is important.
Humans have emotions, and they are generally universal. The ones you have used are typical, the questions are thoughtful.
Well done.

This well-written poem is very encouraging. Sometimes I'm having a little pity party; then I look at all my blessings, have a little guilt party, and move on. Very good!

    I love your review, Janice, the idea of a 'pity party,' sounds like a good idea! Invite all the friends round and have a hum dinger of one, it will soon put things to right!! I think we should all have one of those!! Thank you for this lovely review! xsx

This is short and simple but speaks so much, conveying that it is ok to be human. Those feelings are usually inflicted on us by others, and it's a mystery, so why ask why? Well said.
