Think & Make your mind up


THINK!  (No. 1)

by Rosemary Clarke

Without the bees we would be gone
Now there's a thought to linger on.

Without the cats to catch the mice
We'd really have to pay a price.

Without birds singing in the trees
Our hearts would not know that we're free.

If all the trees never grew we'd all be breathing CO2.

And all our lives would better be
if we see them all as necessary.

MAKE UP YOUR MIND (No. 2)

by Rosemary Clarke

Whether you agree with him
Or if it makes you sick
We've got our own minds after all
Don't go with Dominic
.We're doing this to help ourselves
And also all the carers
Don't be led by the greedy ones
And be the misery bearers!
No let's support the NHS
And everyone who cares
Then if the trouble comes again
We'll always know they're there.

  1. Two small and simple messages we would be wise to regard. Firstly this wold is interlinked, every small thing has its place and there is a place for everything. Secondly, we will only emerge from the present crisis if we act selflessly. Both well written and relevant...

  2. Amusing and thoughtful little poems.

  3. Apt commentaries on life today. You say in verse what many people think.

  4. Wise words as usual Rosemary. Advice on one word, the last of poem (1) Substitute necessary for necessity, gives you a "perfect" rhyme too.
