Step inside yourself Stay a while and dwell Think of where you’ve been About where you intend to go Many things are on your mind Maybe regrets; maybe ideas We are given so much time How are we using your allotment? Who do you care for and What is important to you? Is it looking out for others? Helping them when you can Or are your own plans more important The things that you needed to do All of these are understandable What is it that brings you joy The looking out for yourself Or the giving of yourself to others Life is a precious gift Some call it a miracle We love to see happy people And appreciate those who care Our world is full of misery It would be great to have hope Politicians are seeking control They have destroyed our economy Opened our borders to predators Destroyed our energy independence They are mostly self-serving Do not know what giving is about Cheer on the “peaceful” protesting Smile as we lose our precious gifts While others refuse to sit on the sidelines They step up and lay down their lives As firemen, policemen, volunteers and Front line workers in the Covid-19 epidemic What do you prefer? Life as a coward Or death as a hero? Stanski July 20, 2021 ^
