When life gives you lemons...

I like that the wind can hurl me its bluster but not knock me down

I like that the clouds can throw me their tears but not make me cry

I like that the hail can pelt her tiny marbles, but that I can turn my back and laugh

I like that the mist can surround me in its veil but not get me lost

I like that the sun can scorch my skin but another will grow

I like that the frost can nip at my fingers but not to the bone

I like that the ice can cover my path but not take my balance

I like that I am better than those things, that I can outsmart them, my wit a shield to their evil charms

When the world gives me weather and that weather is unkind, I like that I can write a poem and hurl it straight back

I like that.
