thinking of things to put to verse
in times that often are adverse
to topics that involve the universe
and other serious matter
is difficult
world politics is quite atrocious
the culture scene not less ferocious
and so if you are somewhat cautious
in your choice of themes
few are left
you might start out with poised pen
for something serious & pertinent - but then
you have a quite inspiring moment when
you realize what truly is important
in our lives
to find the words
others can understand
