David Scott Poet Rhyme

ChAnGe

   When everything's out of range
   Once again it is the unforseable 
   Feeling like you have to rearrange
   What was at one time your normal

   Thrown deep into the interstrange 
    What now feels like the unfaberbal 
   When everything starts to derange 
    What feels like the unimaginable 

   These times do seem very strange
   And now quite often unpredictable 
   But guess everything's set to change 
   For better or worse, it is inevitable 




    Written between May and June 2025
    Trying to give a definition of what change feels like for all of us in these times since pandemic 
        Change Somthing we don't always have control over  not been on here for while # ;~{()

Sara Kendrick March 18, 2026 at 6:17 AM I liked this one. The pandemic of 2019 came to me in 2020 at which time my husband, my grandson and me were all sick at the same time with COVID. I am left with a permanent change that effects my digestive tract. It keeps me from doing what I would like so there have been many adjustments made in my life, but it is not as bad as some who were affected and definitely not as bad for those families who had deaths from it.
