-- What Things Seem Like -- John Herlihy Things that we found Seem like things that makes us glad. Things that we lost Seem like things that we never had. Things that we miss Seem like things that make us lose hope. Things that we treasure Seem like things that will give pleasure. Things that be empty Remember things that are full. Things that be full We keep remembering still. Things that we hate Have us run the other way. Things that we love Have so much of value to say. - - - - - - (c) John Herlihy 30 July 2019

I like the way your logic works in describing something and how it relates. Well done.

A compilation of truisms that we could all use a bit more of. Again paradoxes resound in this piece as well as a subtext that trickles out and becomes essential in making the whole of your message. Good write here, John.
