Ruling We rule this kingdom like a clown With stars around our head a crown In truth and in our dreamers plight We spin this planet day and night. And I am forced in mental stress To ask we stop and clean this mess Or green will turn to sterile gray And we will lose our right to stay This is a lesson we must teach To every form of life and leach If not we will infect our lie And wind will whisper us goodbye I have no clue as to the ruse But fear the end will cook our goose And I would cry in subtle sigh I sort of liked this apple pie So teach you what you can dear friend And we may see a better end |

We use to think it was difficult just to get our kids to clean their rooms, right, Sy? Then we looked at the bigger picture, and our "room" became the earth & sky... ~*~ I learned a couple of decades or so ago that when my folks said "you don't quit teaching, and you never quit learning..." was putting it mildly... |

You surely touch a topic that should be our priority always ... Great job, dear Seymour. Here it is so hot, that breathing becomes difficult .... also regarding the climate there have been sins for which we pay now. May we continue to teach and to learn contemporaneously. Thank you! Love, Margherita |

Seymour, a very important message in your poem this morning! Thankyou for reminding us to take care of Mother Earth. Speaking of apple pie....how about a nice apple turnover with your tea? hugs, Chris |

The question is: How does one teach what was never learned...? -MVS You CAN make a difference: |
