I Left My Coat in a Tree

I left my coat Hanging on a tree. A few days later What do I see? A small bird nest In my small coat hood. In that nest were eggs, And I thought that was good. A few days later What do I see? Three or four hatchlings In my coat in the tree. A couple of days later A storm came along. I found my coat on the ground And the hatchlings were gone. I left my coat Hanging on a tree. I hope the chicks flew away And are happy and free.

You Had It Worse


Don’t be angry,

It’ll only cause trouble.

I only end up lectured

So don’t share your anger.


Hide it behind

The mask of indifference.

If they ask what’s wrong say,

“Nothing. I’m fine.”


I’m sick of showing anger

Only to be met with a lecture,

Advice I never asked for,

And platitudes that worsen my attitude.


I’m sick of people saying

I shouldn’t feel this way

Because they had it worse.

I was just having one bad day.


If they ask what’s wrong,

I’ll say, “Everything’s fine.”

If they pry, I’ll say,

“I’m fine. I’m sure you had it worse.”
