"So stand up for our children’s futures
Walk together hand in hand
Accept that everybody’s different
Let’s draw lines in the sand."
AMEN!

A thought provoking read, the kind that makes you pause and reflect hard.
Are we really free? I guess we will never glean a straight-forward answer to this question.
"Aren't we chained to our thoughts,
Our misplaced faith..." puts the abstract concept of freedom so much into perspective. Pretty much sums up my qualms.
Well expressed!
Belated Happy Independence Day!

Reading this poem makes me feel as though I've wrapped myself in a warm, fuzzy blanket. A much needed reassurance in these gloomy days.

I usually find one line in a piece to cling to. However, I wasn't able to do that with this one because the whole poem stood out to me. Well done.

Thanks, MC and Brian. I suspect Jagger-Richards will not feel too threatened by my writing skills. Nor Chris Farlowe by my singing.

a poem which comes from the heart with no frills.You mention being your own lover. This is crucial to loving others, first we must love ourselves.
A good poem
Thanks

Hi DK - I did read that Seattle's lady police chief had resigned due
to a reduction in police funding. A notable decision considering the
social instability that has been occurring in that area of the USA
lately. .
Oh - by the way...yes, i did pay off that hire
purchase plan on that record player of my
youth. It was one of my better buys for the enjoyment it gave me back then.

Great poem Eric! I love the verse “picking up the pieces is an art.” So true. Highs and lows seems to come with the creative mind. Writing is the best way I have found to hurdle the pit of despair. Write on!

Whether life is high or low
Whether the one you love stays or goes
Whether life is horribly horrible
A coward can only stumble
Stoop so low as to turn suicidal
Life is far much brighter
Theres one right hand to hold in trouble
That hand will come on time
Just be brave have patience
Never give up on hope
Because of useless people
Cheers to life!!

For a memorable beano.

A timely reminder of the upside of the passing years.
Age is a gift. So many never get to enjoy it in this life.

Kealan,
This poem takes some delving into but the imagery is powerful. I shall have to re read and ponder some more on its meaning.
