What is Trivial?

February 4, 2023February 5, 2023 by wordman2022

Every day people come into
Contact with all sorts of
Situations and decisions
As to what is meaningful
And well, what is trivial.
We want our lives to have
Meaning and purpose.
Living for a cause is the
Way to live a non trivial
Life. That makes the
Difference.

Life is a Poem

December 18, 2022 by wordman2022

We live our life in
Many different ways
Mad, loving, lonely,
Sick, healthy, productive,
Frustrated. But we can turn
Coal into diamonds by living
Life as a poem anyway

Dead End

December 12, 2022December 13, 2022 by wordman2022

I can tell you it is
No fun living on a
Dead end one way
Street
Once I bought the
House I had to
Sell my car
Now I have to have
Everything delivered
Vacations are out
Of the question
My neighbors feel
The same way
