September 20, 2016


COMBINATIONS


Salt and pepper -
but not sugar and salt.

Him and her,
but not him and her.

Forgiveness and mercy, sometimes,
but sometimes it's too difficult.

Heaven and hell, yes - at times,
but no, not in the long run - never.

Forgive and forget,
yes and no.

Fiddle and violin - no,
but fiddle and dancing - oh yes!

Rose petals and tissues, but
not sandpaper and sarcastic words.

Winter and summer, but you need
to have spring and autumn in between.

First and last, but sometimes
the last shall be first.
