That's a very good & beautiful poem, Clay. Thank you very much for sharing.

We take for granted who we are.
We take for granted what we can do.
Some of us think that others are better than us by far.
Others think other people are far better than you.

We try to be the best that we can be.
Some people need to set ourselves free.

What would we do if we lost everything?
What would we do if we could no longer sing?
Who knows what the future could bring?
What would we do if we could no longer hear a bell ring?

Did you write all these Ann?

Did you write all these Ann?

Yes. Sometimes I just find myself thinking in rhyme & feel the need to write these thoughts down.

Why have there been wars on & off since time began?
Why can't we have a complete, eternal fighting ban?
What are the causes of war?
What is all this fighting for?
Why can't some people accept other people's creeds, colours & views?
Why are wars always on the news?
Why are some people so greedy?
Why are other people so needy?

There have been wars on & off since time began because some people can't respect other people's beliefs & opinions & the fact that they are different & other people are greedy.
The fact that some people are so greedy & won't share is why other people are so needy.

I'm thinking of extending the answer stanza of the last poem I shared to answer all of the questions I posed not just some of them.

 

[Horsa]

I wrote this poem to make you smile.
I hope you find everything you do worthwhile.
I hope you have a lot of fun.
I hope you get everything you need to do done.
I hope everyone is good to you.
I hope you do everything you want to do.
I hope you have a lot of good laughs.
I hope you have lots of relaxing baths.
I hope you have lots of friends.
I hope your happiness never ends.
I hope you find lots of things to sing about.
I hope you don't often have a reason to shout.

Nature is beautiful.
Beautiful, bright, birds
singing harmonious &
melodious songs.
Lovely, luscious, landscapes.
Daffodils, roses, carnations.
Heather on mountains.
Wild ponies & horses
running wild & free.
Stunning sheepdogs.
Why can't we just allow ourselves
to be like the birds & animals, (free)?

I like creative people because I'm not creative... I'm more functional. I could sit and watch an artist draw a picture because I'm fascinated by it... largely because I can't do it myself.

I'm not very practical. I can't draw either. Most people can do anything they want to. I'm not saying they can do things well but they can do them.

I just love horses.
I love ponies & donkeys.
I always will do.

I love all horses.
I love ponies & donkeys
I always will do.
I think they're so beautiful.
They're very useful as well.

There was an old lady from Limerick.
Who was feeling extremely sick.
She ate too much chocolate & drunk too much beer.
She was so full of good cheer.
She was so drunk she leant on a stick.

The power of a song

Do you know the power of a song?
Songs are a good way of expressing feelings.
They are especially helpful if you dance or sing along.
You can express feelings about your bad dealings.

You can express happiness, depression & rage.
Then you can let go of these feelings.
You can turn another page.
You can concern yourself with other dealings.

You can talk about subjects that are taboo.
You can express these feelings at a volume that goes through the roof.
You don't just have to give people an emotional clue.
You can tell them the truth.

Everyone can have a dance.
They may sing or play instruments if they get the chance.

Beautiful Lady Ann
