We are given life and sometimes it does not work out as planned, but there is always another day, but don't leave it too late to turn things around as life is short! Love Dolly x

In my opinion, I really like this poem - a potentially amazing write, with just a bit more attention to the uneven spots, easily corrected by reading aloud several times and deleting, adding or changing a couple of words...

Hi there;
Sometimes it takes extra play to live with the cards you're dealt in life. The game is never easy, but when someone deals from the bottom of the deck, you're doomed as soon as it starts.

Thank you for sharing,

A good poem but I hope you don't mind me pointing out a couple of things.
You've put "I need different hand" leaving out the "a" and may I suggest you replace the word "everything" with all to make it scan better. Best wishes.

This speaks the dilemma in playing cards, feeling of losing the game, chances of losing the spirit of playing cards, good playing cards yet to learn, it looks sometime not interesting; I liked.

I believe there are times when we're not meant to understand, Delahay. We simply have to take the hand we're dealt, look at things at face value, assess our current situation, then move on down the road.
Sh!t happens and life goes on.
So should we.

This is a well written poem. We can only deal with the cards we are dealt and do the very best we can. A nice title and artwork to go along with the poem.

G'day Folks.

Beautifully written. It is the way it is, I'm afraid lol. I look back now and it takes me all day to do what I used to do all day. Some people just have to question everything we do, as you say. I say... bugger 'em! lol.

Great job and great to see a post from you.

Cheers Fez

This is true; however, the game continues until someone cuts out the light. It is sad when life is compared to a deck of cards--for the newbie to independence.

    I think it was more compared to a game of cards. And about how one deals, and what one does, with what they're given in life. Thank you for reading and for your feedback.

'Freestyle' is a very good description of the way most of us live. Because sometimes life just seems so confusing, we have to 'wing' it. Loved this, blessings...

    Thank you, Irish, for your kind remarks. I appreciate the feedback. It seems in life we have to take the cards we're dealt and make the most we can from what we have. Have lemons, make lemonade.
reply by Irish Rain on 27-Sep-2017
    I LOVE lemonade!!!

    As long as it's not too tart. :)

    Yes...I add a little cherry juice....makes it a lovely pink, and sweetens it!!
reply by the author on 27-Sep-2017
    I don't think I've had it with cherry juice. Sounds interesting.
reply by Irish Rain on 27-Sep-2017
    I buy the jar of cherries...it's especially sweet.
