When Life Gives You Lemons

ummm lemonade. lol

When life gives you lemons

You make lemonade,

But what do you do when there is no lemons?

You make do with what you have,

You take every chance

Every opportunity,

To make your life better

Every lemon is a missing piece to the puzzle,

A key ingredient in what you thirst for

When life gives you lemons

You make lemonade

Even if you don't have lemons

You use the ingredients to make something better

As you sit on your porch and think about memories

While sipping lemonade

Love this old saying though I prefere to add mine to my diet coke or squeeze them over fish lol, I often feel we should all learn to enjoy lemons and smile instead of grimace as the sourness of flavour imitates our lives at times and these are the times we more than ever need to smile. Keep em' coming

Nice, hopeful poem. I need something like this right now.

This is a good poem!

Just an editing note... the third line should read.. when there are no lemons... just to be grammatically correct!

I think it is well written, tells its story without getting too wordy!

Very good logic. It is old logic and still useful for today world. We must find some positive in our life and day. Or we will fail. A very good ending to a excellent poem.
