Idle Moments
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)

Can't count the ways

I have missed since born.

So many idle moments

Left on each morn.

 

Yet it seems not to matter,

As they are captured later on.

A nuisance, at best, when remembered,

And still they tag along.

 

I'll not let them off easy,

As to forget them entirely.

That would be the easy way out,

But in the long run, not my lot.

There are no idle moments, George, not as long as your brain is stirring, and your heart is pounding and the joy of life, love, and friendships are around you. But you know all that, and you are just yanking a few chains. Oops! You got me!

I like this very much, George; it makes me realize that I feel the same way about all of those "idle moments." Perhaps they are not so "idle" after all. Love and peace to you,

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
