ODD TO VICKI

Vicki, friend Vicki, your poem hit a nerve,
just when we think things are glowing, something or someone throws us a curve.

We all take a chance on being happy, simply trying to remain content,
but before we know it sorrow can cover us like a huge dark tent.

The best way to handle ourselves is to try to make light,
of all the unknown things that try to scare us, cause us fright.

Remember that no matter how bad things seem to be,
we are all Boomer Sisters here to share and say we see.

Of couse there is God who is in our corner from the start,
hang on to His words, He'll always comfort us and take our part.

Go ahead, write life's happenings down, the good and the bad,
this will lift up your spirit, and you won't feel as sad.

Hip, hip, hooray, its another interesting boomer day,
one more day above the dirt, good or bad, is more than okay...
