Trump won, Harris lost
Gobs of money, the election cost
Polls wrong again, predictions tossed
Revelers and grievers, both get sauced
Summing Up 2022
Written: by Miracle Man

Not every road I traveled was paved,
some day’s were encumbered with concern.
I had good days that I so craved,
and thoughts that God let me discern.
While traveling down a slippery slope,
I found days smoother as I slowed down.
It was always in Jesus that I found my hope,
He moved my demeanor to smile from frown
Sometime I missed opportunities God had placed before me
as I dealt with health issues,
But at every moment I gave thanks unto the Lord.

I’m not here, just to make up life’s numbers
I’m here, because I found a niche to chill
Through hustle and bustle, I can slumber
And whilst you count sheep, I’ll be snoring still

Mr MacPherson, a mathematician
Was married to Sally,a keen statistician.
With little division to trigger vexation
Their conjugal lives led to multiplication.
First Roland, then Harry and then the addition
Of first daughter Jenny, a gifted logician.
The one common factor of great satisfaction
Engendering fervour and strong interaction
Was love of arithmetic, logic and theories
Together with quantum and harmonic series.
In sum, they endeavoured on every occasion
To bring mathematics within the equation!

SUMMING UP
I'm the sum of numbers
together make words;
Letters seven, five, four
added 3 words sixteen;
Carpenter son builder
of souls nailing up sins;
Bricks, concrete, mortar
doesn't always build walls;
