When Life Gives You Lemons

Missing image

When life gives you a lemon, nasty and rotten


I am talking about those realy bad times


A bad day that just cannot be forgotten


Well, cheer yourself up with my fantastic rhymes



When life gives you the happenings that are bad


Times that you think you cannot get through


Just remember all of the good you have had


Find a touch of loving hope is all you need to do



When life gives you a lemon, it may not be fair


A bad time you think you do not deserve


Find someone who really does care


One whos love and inspiration you can always preserve



When life gives you a lemon


Make Lemonade


When Life gives you a lemon


Dont let hope fade. . .

    I love lemons We have a tree and I use them for lemonaid, lemon tea, lemon pie and my secret for sparkling white socks is to cut the lemons in half (2 0r 3) Squeeze the juice into a bucket of very hot water, let the white socks soak for a few hours. Then wash them as you normally would in detergent and a bit of bleach. I just did that for my son when he came to visit. His socks were .... well, he's homeless so you can imagine. The lemon juice makes them white but also sanitizes.

    anyway I digress and thanks for your entry

    Way to go!

    Way to be positive! So glad that there are some decent happy poets out there who aren't disgustingly syrupy! This one is quite uplifting, as Nile Tigress said, and a good inspiration to those who need it!

    Or, if you want to rephrase it, a la Happy Bunny:

    "When life hands you lemons, squirt juice in ememy's eyes!"

    Horrible, but funny, just the same!

    Anyway, good job and thanks for your comment on "Alliance". It was much appreciated! Keep up the good work!

    Best wishes,

    Laura

    I like it- but I gotta say this: 'When life gives you lemons, paint them brown and pretend they're kiwis. Everyone loves kiwis!' Thanks for making my day!

    I liked it, it was cute. But I have always thought when life gives you lemons to grab the bottle of tequilla.
