    Serious

    Why can't you be serious,
    don't you understand me?
    I don't understand you,
    I can only understand Spanish, see?

    Serious is not good for you.
    You get heart attacks and ulcers.
    You need water to drink down the medicine.
    Small seeds in the water.

    Grass starts growing in your stomach.
    Then you have to get up very early
    in the morning to water the grass.
    Then, the grass gets real tall.

    Not to mention the fertilizer,
    or weeding and trimming to keep it neat.
    you have to cut it with a lawn mower.
    That is alot of work just to be serious.

    Do you mow the grass in your stomach?

    Are you Serious? :) I found this to be humorous .. Just because it's fantastic. Life is way to short to take things too serious ... My Grandfather once told me ... Laugh - because it hurts to cry .. then he'd yell ... So Lighten Up!! Great write Grito ... another fave! :)

    Interesting take on seriousness. I like it. You're right being so serious is the whole problem with the world. No one should have to mow the grass in their stomach. Bravo my friend.

    Yes, is not good to be so serious, just to give an smile, just to relax all the time, don't be so serious so you can have more fun.

    Sometimes I just let it grow cause it takes to much work to keep the lawnmower repair. so I try to find friends to come help chop down the difficulties.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
