'You can't cry over spilled milk! ' <br />my mother always said. <br /> <br />'Life's not a piece of cake! ' <br />she hammered in my head. <br /> <br />'That's the way it goes, <br />' that's the way the cookie crumbles' <br /> <br />My mother saved her idioms <br />for all my idiotic troubles.<br /><br />John Randal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/idioms-for-idiots/
