Dear ZZ and friends,

I was once told by a old wise man that every woman is a mother to somebody or something at some point of her life. And that’s absolutely true.

Beautiful poem.

Regardless if ZZ makes a point or not, one must either chose to live life as if the glass is half full or half empty. And there are people out there (ZZ) that chose the latter. If someone choses to over-analyze poetry, drawn pessimistic conclusions, and derive obscure meaning from a simple child’s poem…let them; it is their right. Let’s live like the glass is half full, because the other option doesn’t benefit anyone. It only serves to incite pointless arguments, which just adds fuel to the fire of pessimism.

I first heard this poem more than thirty years ago, recited to me by my dad and it had nothing to do with Mother’s Day.

Gentlemen, gentlemen. It’s a MOTHER”S DAY poem for goodness sake…zz is just looking for something controversial to say, and doesn’t really give a beep about what we really think. Not really worth getting all riled up over…

great poem btw
