What We've Got

Today's Poem

What We've Got

Does it matter, what we've got?
Some have a little, some a lot
And who is happy in this time?
Don't guess too soon, read through this rhyme

The answer is that no-one knows
One day things change, new fortune grows
And still the answer isn't plain
Think on these things, and think again

The games are endless, who may win?
Contestants race once they begin
And yet the questions still remain
Some live in lies, some live in pain

Look further than your shadowed friends
A chance is here to make amends
With truth and beauty, burning hot
Give thanks today for what we've got
