Nobody likes a sour puss! Just kidding! You have poetically presented a positive life lesson with this well written naani! The photo-art is appropriate to enhance.
Best wishes with this entry.

That is brilliant advice! I love it! It can turn things around too, bring about a friendship that wasn't there before. Well done and good luck in the contest. I think it's a strong contender. :)) Sandra xx

I like the message of this. We have to weather whatever happens, come what may in this life. This message speaks of getting up, dusting yourself off and not only going on, but, overcoming adversity. I enjoyed reading this inspirational and well written work. Well done!

What I love your poem is that can be a twist on the Bible verses about a soft answer turning away wrath and turning the other cheek IF that lemonade is sweetened. I enjoyed pondering this.

    Susan, we do need Diviner guidance at times to turn the other cheek..

When I read this I was thinking of those that sometime appear to have been baptized in lemon juice. Very good entry. I wish well in the contest. Merry Christmas to all.

This is a very good contest submission. Contests on FanSTory are difficult to win. There are a lot of talented writers on the site. I enter often, but seldom win. I hope you do better.
