What’s wrong with wearing rose-colored glasses?

Face it–it’s hard today to walk without stepping in it.

And if you slip and fall–oh my! If only our inner

compass could be depended upon, if our

creative urges could steer us through the dark,

find the light.

Should we throw down our tinted lenses and fight

the tarantulas?  The booby-trapped

life jackets? Don’t give in to despair, they say, and

with luck my sword will slice thin air and not be

thrust back at me.  The Drama Queen sits

beside her sister in tinted glasses, waiting for the

other shoe to fall. Oh my.
