life in a nutshell

Early morning when the paper comes
I'm sitting at table going through
There are things that gladden heart
And things that tear it 'part
A smile here and then a tear drops
A line that wrenches the heart...
Next page a cartoon pops
Tragedy and achievements
Dare-devils and gunshots
Kidnapped! Murdered!
Ads of bridal shops
Sale at the mall...
Run to catch the show
Is this not
Life in a nutshell though!
