Delightful on so many levels. Simple things, the child’s continued attempt until they get it right and accomplish the thing that meant everything, the adult receiving acclaim but secretly longing for something else, something quieter, unimportant to the works at large, no acclaim attached but meaning worlds on a personal level. LOVED. This ver y much
while humorous, it seemed to me there was a moral to the poem. ‘Have-nots’ look at the ‘Haves’ and assume they’re supremely happy with their lives, but there are always sources of discontent. But then, I have a tendency to ‘overthink’ things 😉

Well, you know… I guess it didn’t occur to Bill that he can sit down and prop his foot up on one leg, one-by-one to tie his shoes. 😆🤣😂
I love this, though!
