What? Me Worry?


Poem Artwork

 

 2012


A new year is upon us,
coming up fast.

They say this year is different,
not like the last.

They say all kinds of things,
will happen in 2012.

New theories abound,
and old theories evolve.

As though it were some puzzle,
we are supposed to solve.

The world has its problems,
and they are clearer to see.

But I see next year,
no different to be.

The world gets better,
all of the time.

Some people suffer,
but others are fine.

For those that think,
the world's coming to an end.

I say, "Open your mind,
let it bend."

A flexible mind,
knows how to survive.

Dinosaur thoughts,
are no longer alive.

A wise witty composition that edifies thoughts with wisdom, and leads one to cerebrate on living and life. "212" Glows.

In reverent appreciation,

This is how I feel when I hear the negative comments people have about about living without all of the extras they had before this "recession". You sum it up with, "A flexible mind, knows how to survive." Bravo!!

I think your right, each year is pretty much what you make it,
some things of course you no say in but mostly a person lays their own path to follow,
Thanks

If it ends, I can't do a thing about it. I can do all I possibly can do to make this year a good one. Great poem Ron.

What's the point in panicking? Some of us will already be gone by the 2012 deadline and some of us will be too drunk to care. The rest of us might as well just get on and have a good year.

Good strong lines that tell it like it is.

survival and flexibility go hand and hand ... conceptually well written, Ron ...

It's so strange to think that such a massive, all-powerful beast could be snuffed like these great Ancients; like you say, invincibility is perhaps a "dinosaur" mindset that needs to be challenged and humility (that much-maligned and misappropriated virtue) is the way forward to achieve that flexibility of mind that will cause us all to survive. Long live Ron The Mastodon at any rate! HAPPY NEW YEAR! AND, of course, many happy returns! :)) xx

I weary of the doomsday predictions. Why does anyone give them any kind of credence is beyond me.

I try to be flexible but sometimes I fail,
Maybe in 2012 I won't as much whine & wail,
But I doubt it...
