J.P.G. Poems

The world we live in ©

By Joseph P. Gimenez

 2010 for the Red Hook Series

The world revolves each day, spinning out in space

It holds many varied peoples we call the human race

Sometimes we disagree then KABOOM you hear the sound

When words no longer work to fix the problems that were found.

 

Luckily, we have an ace that lies just up our sleeves

It’s called the human brain although at time it deceives

Your conscience is next in line but that too may not go far

For there are two sides for everything, and sometimes you don’t get far.

 

Finally, we have the only thing that makes sense sometimes

It’s the rhythm of one’s heart beat one thump at a time

It tells us that we’re alive and where there’s life there’s hope

That man will someday find the answers, and enable us to cope.

 

So, when you look up at the sky each night remember we’re not alone

We have unknown entities that live within our home

They protect us each day whether we think so or not

Its only with their protection that we’ve got as far as we’ve got.
