Our Lives Rearranged

So many times our lives rearranged Resilient we are, accustomed to change Wars, Revolutions, Coups and Upheavals Plunder and Pillage and assorted evils Recessions, Depressions, Runaway Inflation Calls for austerity and eating food rations Bankruptcies, lay-offs, terminations Then all of a sudden, rejuvenations So go with the flow, and just do your best Give yourself one leg up on the rest

Life is one of constant changes, often unpredictable. We cannot resist the change though some of them are very depressing. But we some how learn to live with them. We earn the stamina to face every set back. The present times are beautifully reflected in your poem, Gershon

Your poem is all too true, Gershon. I liked the last two lines, but only because we don't have any other chance of survival. It can seem like we are turning the other cheek and ignoring the ones amid all the horror in this crazy, cruel world. Good Write, Gershon Take care, Shirley
