Anyone's Guess

Time to change the people that shun Change the things which have been done Can things be changed, done by anyone? Learn from the stone being cast around Take the time lay stones on the ground Who's that I see? Demanding a pound Gripping a stone to cast once again Lots of damage feeling the pain If I tell you, will you refrain? Probably not so what's one to do Work on myself see what is true Please take the time, sit in a pew Stop asking the question what's wrong with people They tend to back off, when facing the steeple Reach out my friend, be like the sepal Time to ask myself without fear Find the courage, to seek what is clear Try not to look at life with a sneer Know what I see may pretend not to say Sometimes you have to at the end of the day We're only human, sometime we stray Just a defense developed when spun That's where I think it may have begun has nothing to do, with you Anyone

oops, I just saw you were actually here in 2013. Why so few poems, Ronald. I hope you will be inspired to write more this month. Try some of the contests. They are MY inspiration most of the time.
