Anil Deo Poet Alliteration

Finding Order In Ordinary

I
Better not blow away the ordinary
Often ordinary turns extraordinary
How, you may query
I'll answer, if u tarry

II
There is order in the ordinary 
In the hasty humdrum! It's extraordinary
Humdrum, ordinal, cardinal (numbers?)
Answers, answers, before s/he slumbers

III
Humdrum? Can't just pass concepts by
My drum won't hum, I do (Yes, I try)
If drums do drum, where's the humdrum?
Hey stop! Read slowly. Who are U running from

Anil Deo May 5, 2022 at 5:01 AM Smile ... Now & then, Dr Seuss's "happy dappy" influence takes over.

Sotto Poet May 5, 2022 at 4:57 AM This is thoughtful poetry, Anil. From a contemporary perspective, I regularly recognize trends and reasons; therefore, it is possible the problem isn't repetition, but instead our unwillingness to evolve into novel ideas that explore the meadow. Anil Deo May 5, 2022 at 5:00 AM Amen Sotto Poet. Thank you for reading & sharing from your vicaulary fountain & gracious heart. It scares me some days. How much I need to grow. Shalom shalom

Joseph P. DiMino May 5, 2022 at 4:32 AM Steady paces...a cycle to plan in and for...even in so called chaos, I often find patterns and reasons according to new perspective~so, perhaps it is not repetition that is the humdrum or obstacle, but our refusing to grow into new thought that digs deeper the gully, not willing to see ourselves more in control and less reactive? Who knows? As usual, you always get me thinking Anil. Thank you. Anil Deo May 5, 2022 at 4:58 AM Thank u so kindly. Some poems come out of digestion, or more quickly, from mastication. God enjoys ordinary moments too
