for the Laughing Daffodil



I. The Good Stuff



It feels good to be kind
Like I am growing
Puts me in my right mind
Like life is showing
Me the good stuff how to be
Human by humanity

It feels good to be me
I find being kind
Part of a family
Finally knowing
If better late than never
How now is our forever

And how this is enough
Now is the good stuff



II. The Rhyme of Time



Now is the rhyme of time because
Of all the when that ever was
Or will be then it still will be
Now again how it is for me

The only when I ever am
Or was for I am bound to be
Again now yes sir then yes ma'am
Now what and why and how I know

So now I am though round I go
Then to be found now when I do
A present time commends me to
And recommends now then to you

Forever how whenever was
The rhyme of time is what now does



III. Before I Go



I want to be better want to unfetter
Myself from my past at last
Would like to evolve before I go and grow
Try to solve as I revolve
The riddle of why I am before I die

Live though I may never know
The reason in the season of my turning
Tomorrow from yesterday
Whatever the reason never stop learning
Never turn today away

And being better for having been worse
To be a star pupil of the universe
A student of being here now to be
In the fall the best of all the rest of me

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
