Poetry

She carried us for nine months,
Her body nurtured us,
The many days of feeling sick,
She took without a fuss.

Did you ever stop to ponder,
And take a look around?
To pay attention to the world you’re in
Where beauty doth abound?

What is it with the World today?
We seem to have lost our way!
The basic principles that we were taught
Have all gone far astray!

This world of ours is once again
Facing the threat of war,
Yet the more I think about it,
The more I wonder what it’s for.

The sounds of Auld Lang Syne ring out,
Soon midnight meets the Dawn,
Darkness soon gives way to day,
A brand New Year is born

arry night, in Bethlehem, a Little Boy was born,
His birthplace was a humble stall;
His mission to bring Peace on Earth,
And Good Will to us all.

One note plays, then another,
A tune begins to grow,
A lovely song soon fills the air
As music starts to flow.

Let’s take some time out to reflect,
On things that control our mind,
The things that have shaped and honed us,
And have determined the paths we find.
