AS YEARLY NUMBERS ROLL ON, SO TOO THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INNER CIRCLE.
THE REALISATION AND APPRECIATION OF THE SUROUNDING CARING WARMTH.
LOOK WITHIN AT WHAT YOU HAVE, WHEN PER CHANCE YOU START TO WHINGE
2024 2025
Christmas Done-New Year Approaches- Goodbye to 2024
I had a little whinge as I walked out that door.
Really was a tough one, said I, staring at the floor.
Forgetting about my privileged excellent health.
Dismissing a vital measure of family loving wealth.
So sitting in the just started new year.
Safely reflecting with a nice cold beer.
Perchance tis the time to re-evaluate the score.
Of my tainted view of life, of times that I swore.
Did I have a feed to eat tonight and every night.
Did I sleep the peaceful sleep with a wife at night.
Did, while I slept, my house get bombed, out of sight.
Did I, not watch, the grandies grow in ultimate delight.
Then inner voice, she yelled to me “Add 2024 up again”
Of the multiple times and places shared with my friends.
Of vibes of life, connection passions, those pleasure sends.
Such things are the conduit of the way, the soul it mends.
Perchance been lucky, got away with more than one should
Know for sure that own my actions haven’t always been good
Maybe go with the roll of dice, sit above the whinge and whine
Now the time to concentrate on buzz of life, go with that anytime.
