Beg Steal Or Borrow, Live For Tomorrow

Beg Steal Or Borrow...Live For Tomorrow Metallic gray skies...the fledgling dies Winter grieves...tainted leaves Severed hand...barren land Empty farm...sound alarm Rotting hay...horses astray Fractured horn...plough forlorn Dried up stream...forsaken dream Beg steal or borrow...live for tomorrow 06/29/2010 12:46 a.m. Aboard cruise liner: Explorer Of The Seas Cabin 4179

You have painted a very dismal picture. With climate change, man made miseries and the spread of a never ending pandemic, mankind is pushed to such a tragic state. Let us cling on to hope and believe that things will change ! Wish you a Happy Christmas, Anselmo

Thank you Valsa for sharing your world view. Hunger for extreme power and arrogance, are the main causes of this planetary turmoil we're facing right now. Have a Merry Christmas and Peaceful 2022!...ab

The people who live today have had the benefit of seeing young people grow up. And Natures beauty in all forms. Most take it for granted and do not look after these precious gifts for future generations to come. Selfish and uncaring, living for today only. .

Intriguing thought, 'Live for tomorrow.' So many live only for today. Then, of course, there are those who dream of yesterday, like Paul McCartney, the Beatle...

LOL! Yes, Sir Paul wrote one of the biggest selling songs in the music world. Regarding the poem, I think most of us humans do our best to overcome our toughest obstacles, and sometimes successfully. Thanks Gershon...ab
