The Grass on the Other Side
The grass is green everywhere
but to us, it seems greener across the fence.
why? Why do we believe it to be so?
All grass is the same.
All grass grows the same way.
Grass is grass.
Grass is a metaphor for our own actions.
Stop worrying about the grass.
Be greatful for what you have.
And just remember, there is someone out there who has it worse than you.

I personally love all grass equally. I like it. It is simple and clear. But not very deep. Come on Show us who you really are. We can handle it.

Hey Shaunda! Agreed- we can handle it, its just a matter if hearing the words of poetry thru the eyes of the writer. How are things going 4 you these days??? I have been gone awhile and much to tell, im trying to organize my mind so as to hear my own words.

well, tell, tell. I musta been feeling a little spunky when I commented on this. It is true that someone always has it worse than us. I have to remind myself of this when I'm feeling blue. Then I smoke a joint and know, my grass is green too.

I love this, in fact I can say I will remember this one- the grass is always greener on the other side until you have to mow it, its a comforting reminder that their are others out there as fucked up as me!
