Every Cloud Has a Silver Lining - Original Poetry.

My pockets are empty,

Ripped boots on my feet.

What about my Betty?

Her love was deceit...

She took from me all

And to a next gone.

Tragedy was last fall,

But it is a new dawn!

I recognized the world,

Happier than I was!

My sails now unfurled,

I learned the life's laws.

These laws are very simple -

Don't put head under the ax,

Don't break your soul's temple

And don't pay not your own tax!

If live breaking yourself,

Controlling every motion.

It's like ship on the shelf -

Not knowing an open ocean!

Beside should be the one

Who shares your impulses!

Then life will be a fun,

Do not take this just "as is"!

I live the way I want,

I have a wonderful wife!

Time from that fall gone a lot,

We are sharing one life.

But what about my Betty?

I heard, she has a new husband.

She is no longer so pretty

And their marriage agreement at hand...
