Way to Say
Another Spring
another Fall
another rainbow
Another famine
another war
another epidemic
Many new heroes
many new heroines
many new villains
A war here
the same old war there
with a new trouble spot.
A lost pup
returned to smiling little girl.
The smell of roses
and the skim of snails
and jays burying acorns.
Every day a thousand changes and many more
for us to note.
We need to share
all of this and
so much more.
So little time
so much to consider
these poems a short way to say.
