Paradise Lost and Found

Posted on February 26, 2017 by leeroc2

A bigger car by far

Won’t make me a star

A larger house to roam

Won’t make it a home

A spectacular talent for all to see

Will only make a big job for me

A bigger, stronger body revealed

Will require much maintenance concealed

A bigger brain to explore and hone

Will only discover the vast unknown

Oh well, I say

Paradise is here now, today

    Singing, dancing, celebrating, along with any overt signs of happiness are expressly prohibited. We of the “bleak, dark, dreary have no business “waxing” poetic much less philosophically upbeat!

    I have never done poetry but I find it to be very disciplined and economical. Each word must be precise. You can say a lot with little.

    It’s a wise man who knows when he already has all he needs.
