That is precious
Would it be possible to post the words?
wow, thank you so much for kind words, Wiggy.
Here is the poem...
I Can't Fix Everything by Chrissie Gittins
(this is taken from her book
Stars In Jars- New and Collected Poems, published by A & C Black, 2014)
I can fix the picnic basket,
the sticky window in your room,
I can fix your seventh puncture,
I can fix that very soon,
but I can't fix the weather
when we're sitting on the sand
and the rain beats down leaving holes behind.
I can fix the squeaky door and the stain on your rug,
I can fix your seagull mobile and the handle on your mug,
but I can't fix the fall out with the friend you've had for years,
I can only nurse the hurt and wipe away the tears.
I can fix a fallen shelf and a wonky wooden bed,
I can fix a crashed computer and that wall you painted red,
but I can't fix it when you fall in love with someone who doesn't feel the same.
I can only say, "Pick another', fall in love again.
