SEASONS 'N' EMOTIONS, by Chuck Shorter Subscribe to rss feed for Chuck Shorter

A.SPRING - INNOCENCE

THOSE GOLDEN DAYS OF THE PAST
LORDY!WHY DIDN'T THEY LAST?
PLAYIN'IN PUDDLES
KISSES'N'CUDDLES
NO HATRED,NO CREED,NO CASTE

B.SUMMER - SHOCK

MAMA'S SWEET LOVE
ON THE WINGS OF A DOVE
HAS FLOWN TO THE HEAVENS ABOVE
DID GOD LOSE HIS HEAD
WHEN HE LEFT HER FOR DEAD
IN THE FLAMES OF AN EXPLODING STOVE?

C.AUTUMN - REALIZATION

THALIDOMIDE BABIES
AIDS,CANCER'N'SCABIES
MAD DOGS FOAMIN'WTIH RABIES
IT'S ALL MAYHEM'N'STRIFE
IN THIS MEANIN'LESS LIFE
NO SURETIES HERE...JUST MAYBIES

D.WINTER - DEPRESSION

WHEN WILL IT ABATE
THIS MISERY,THIS HATE?
WILL THERE NEVER BE PEACE
WARM FRIENDSHIP'N'EASE?
OR IS SUFFERIN'OUR PRE - ORDAINED FATE?

Hey I really like this poem! You did a great job in writing it!... whether considered in cycles of Life or as scriptural...Great Poem! To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to close; a time to keep, an a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
