Nailing it

I shall overcome...


Poem Artwork

I write about
The silliest things
Who cares if my nails
Make me nervous
I am determined to not
Let them bug me
It definitely does me
A disservice
When they rise above
My fingertips
They seem to take-
Over my life
I look at them
Play with them
Fiddle and obsess
It is like my nails
Are my biggest vice
So darn it nails
Just be, you hear
Or the clippers
Will cut you up nice

This made me smile in that it remided me so much of
my wife and her fixation over her nails and the speed that
they seem to grow...enjoyed

Oh my gosh, Lynn, this is too perfect! I can't let my nails grow, either or I become a nervous wreck obsessing over them. Wonderful poem!
