How Important Am I????

How important am I?
More than I think.
A rooster
minus a hen
equals
no chicks.
Kellogg minus
a farmer
equals
no Corn Flakes.
If the nail factory closes
what good
is the hammer factory?
Paderowskis
genuis wouldn’t have amounted to much
if the
piano tuner
hadn’t shown  u p.
A cracker maker
will do better
if there is a
Cheesemaker.
The most skillful
surgeon needs
the ambulance driver
who delivers the
patient.
Just as Rodgers
needed Hammerstein,
I need someone,
and someone needs me.

RYN: I don’t think you’re selfish; I think it’s natural to get accustomed to a certain routine after living alone for so many years. Yesterday, I spent most of the day grading; today it’s snowing, and I have more grading to do.
