When life gives you lemons,<br /> Eat them.<br /> They do not taste that bad.<br /> <br /> Life is like autumn.<br /> Stop to crunch the pesky leaves.<br /> <br /> Love is... let me think...<br /> <br /> Don&#039;t judge a book by its cover.<br /> <br /> Poetry is a way to put words to things that are unexplainable.

I listen,
I hear,
I'll wipe away your tear.

I tremble,
I cry,
I listen; wonder why.

I wonder,
In awe,
At the pictures your words draw.

When wanted,
My ear,
Is always, for you, here.

I hope,
I pray,
That talk to me you may.

It's that,
I care,
That I am always there.

Whenever,
You need,
I will still give heed.

I listen,
But why?
It's 'cause-
I care,
To try.
