Life Sometimes
By Talia Goodman
Sometimes life is sad.
Sometimes life is happy.
Sometimes life wobbley.
(Like a child on a seesaw).
But I like life sometimes.
Sometimes life is strange.
Sometimes life is juicy.
Sometimes life is dark.
(Like a cool, luscious berry).
But I like life sometimes.
Sometimes life is simple.
Sometimes life is crazy.
Sometimes life is heavy.
(Like black; a thousand-ton pebble).
But I really like life sometimes,
since sometimes life is clever.
Sometimes life is silly.
Sometimes life is fuzzy.
Sometimes life is broken.
(Like it's all your fault).
But I like life sometimes.
Sometimes life is sticky.
Sometimes life is scary.
Sometimes life is smelly.
(Like the weird things one musn't touch).
But I like life sometimes.
Sometimes life is messy.
Sometimes life is pimples.
Sometimes life is awful.
(Like life as life).
But I really like life sometimes,
since life still has a good sense of humor.
