In A Nutshell - Life Poem by Lora Colon

In A Nutshell - Life

Rating: 5.0


Without our consent we're taken from our calm world,
A slap, then a cry, and into this chaos we're hurled;
The ensuing bedlam is referred to as Life - -
I wish I'd been forewarned of the misery and strife,
I'd have said "No thank you, I prefer to remain
An inconsequential atom in a calmer domain! "

Ha! Had to laugh at those last two lines. Very clever! A delightful poem! I also really liked the second line... referring to a slap and a cry. Reminds me of when I was born... I was so ugly that the doctor slapped my mother!
