Times Are Changing

"Our times and life will always be changing, but the strength that dwells within us never changes." Quote by _Constance Time is changing how we live life, because danger is a cruel knife; not sure that my country is safe, I read news with anger and chafe. With family- cannot share throes, for too many of them repose; My life friends are dwindling away, for only the true will not stray. My building neighbors come and go, there are none to share my sad woe; though a few are friendly and nice, at church- so hard to break the ice. I do like social internet, oh, hundreds with the same mindset; sharing thoughts and feelings on Soup, and also with my Facebook group. ________________________ February 07, 2023 Poetry/Rhyme/Times Are Changing Copyright Protected, ID 02-1523-845-07 All Rights Reserved, 2023, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Acquaintance and Neighborhood sponsor, Sotto Poet, Judged 02/20/2023 First Place

My neighbor moved in next door two year now and is such rude person. I tried so many times to be nice to him, but he’s just miserably rude. I enjoyed your poem, Constance, and sending you P.S hugs :)

Fin, thank you so much for the visit. I had a neighbor like that too, she had a face like stone, never smiled. And like you, I tried to be pleasant saying good morning and nothing. That face never cracked, she finally moved away, hurray! Thanks for the compliment, hugs back, Constance
