Little things, small items
get my full attention
from time to time.
Right now, it's a tissue,
Take one. No, go ahead,
take another one.
Don't use it, quiet yet.
Just look at it, examine it.
And, know it to be strong.
There are a lot of fibers
and recycled paper
in a freshly plucked tissue.
Think of the many uses
tissues have, other than
nose blowing or shoe shining.
They are absorption pads
for spilled liquids, or
for picking up a dead bug
Paper tissues are vital
where things happen
and you could name many.
But things not bad enough
to call 911 or a fix-it man
use ready tissues for tools.
I agree with Felix, and yes if tissues could talk, the teales they would tell. These little pieces of thin paper have been used time and again, and again, and again, and will never stop being used, even when everything else goes digital, or is incorporated into the computer. Thank you for sharing Bill.

great for padding bras, in my experience... JOKEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! You should try it! :)) Somehow only a man could have written this... a woman would have spoken about its scent and the feel of it on the cheek etc... I love this as an observation of the male mind... others may disagree... I'll be back to see! :)) xx
In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!

Isn't it amazing how you can take a simple object and make is so important. Also gave me a laugh. Wonderful
