The Nature of Nature

There's one thing that's certain in this big world of ours You can never count on things staying the same It's an ever changing scenario this thing we call nature New rules are being applied to the game Norms and patterns that have applied for a century No longer apply in the world of today The nature of nature is very quickly evolving We can no longer rely on the norms of yesterday It's really quite difficult for our small human brains To accept this and carry on like it's not unusual Depending on how old we are, exponentially speaking We're rapidly heading toward a life that's irreversible So when I think about my age getting close to eighty Am thankful for being born way back then Happily this old geezer will be gone and forgotten With this strange new world I won't have to contend © Jack Ellison 2015

Nature doesn't have a nature... It has a Gol Darn agenda... And by the way... My Dad keeps saying the very same thing... About not having to be here to contend... R.I.G.H.T... He'll be here long after I'm gone and beyond that... Silly bear... That's what ALL old folks say... So don't back slide into mediocrity... or was that just you... taking a momentary breath?
