I understand Allan. Funny, seems I have always had to, I'm pretty use to the leaving.

Love you bro,

Tom

~Life~

They told me that Life could be just what I made it--

Life could be fashioned and worn like a gown;

I, the designer, mine the decision

Whether to wear it with bonnet or crown.

~~~~~~~~~~

And so I selected the prettiest pattern--

Life should be made of the rosiest hue--

Something unique and a bit out of fashion,

One that perhaps would be chosen by few.

~~~~~~~~~~

But other folks came and they leaned o'er my shoulder;

Somebody questioned the ultimate cost;

Somebody tangled the thread I was using;

One day I found that my scissors were lost.

~~~~~~~~~~

And somebody claimed the material faded;

Somebody said I'd be tired ere 'twas worn;

Somebody's fingers too pointed and spiteful,

Snatched at the cloth and I saw it was torn.

~~~~~~~~~~

Oh! somebody tried to do all the sewing,

Wanting always to advise or condone.

Here is my life, the product of many;

Where is that gown I could fashion--alone?
