    Thank you very much for your praise, it means a lot to me. Yes, I know my view of life can be a bit sceptical at times, but I'm sure you'll be thankful to know I'm not always so dreary. ;)

    The only view I didn't agree with is the rich part. I myself am not rich (not even close) but I have been around rich people. I believe that being rich creates greed and selfishness (but I can also see where money can bring happiness, everybody wants) But being poor makes me realize the value of a dollar, I am grateful for everything I have and could not ask for more than just the company of my family and my friends to make me happy! But like I said wonderful poem!

    thank you for your comment on my poem "Welcome Mat". I didn't think many people would understand my metaphor!

    ....oh and yes...I am short! But I am not sure if that is quite the problem or not!!

    I suppose when you're from the working class, your views can go to either end of the scale. My view on the rich clearly opposes yours quite solidly, as I ... am not very keen on the upper classes, lol. Of course, I'm not saying money will solve everything. ;) But it will sort a couple of things out, lol. Financial problems, for instance. ;)

    PS. I've also left a comment on your 'You + Her = Nothing of Me'. I thought the title was pretty intriguing, so I decided to check it out and was, not surprisingly after reading the great 'Welcome Mat' poem, very pleased.
