It Matters How

It matters how we live our life. It matters how we make our money. It matters how we choose our friends. It matters how important we think we are. It even matters how we choose our words. You may not think so But I know so , Can even prove it so. Beyond all reasonable doubt. Unless you can prove wrong those long known facts, Around cause and effect, Beyond reasonable doubt, Then you too will know so. Before your head starts to spin, Or you reach for the gin, While your mind is still clear, Are you open to another fact? We all may be both the cause and the effect, Every time we decide on how we do anything. But to put your mind at ease, We can change the action, And the reaction, To make a more positive impact.

Thank you for taking the time to read it. I like to find new ways to say what has been said before. Poetry is also good for stimulating the mind. Will have a look at your work. Best wishes David.

Thanks. Try to find new ways to say what has been said before and have some fun along the way. I suppose that is the challenge for all poets. I love playing with words and sharing result with others. Best wishes always David.
