we should always value ourselves
“No, she’s not here, It’s just me,” she said “Just me?” …Such a defeated phrase For all the me’s in the world Are so much, much more important Than “just” anything!

All the just ME's in the world are very important people and we should realize that, thank you Karen for your words.

Newfie hugs, Rose

When I'd walk into my office building, I'd say "it's just me." A co-worker loving chastised me saying that "just" devalued who I am. I changed it to "It's me, Kathy." Great poem, for even justice is not just.

God bless you. Kathy

I really liked this one, Karen. "all the me's in the world" = great phrasing.
