What It Adds
In the past
when life moved in langour
poetry and art
provided much succour.

Times changes
the adrenaline pumped a beat
glamour, glitz and success
became the coveted feat.

Pursuits of yore
languished in forgotten shore
the poet thought a fool
with ideas, defunct so not cool.

The storms of life
lashed hard, creating pain and strife
Man searched for a soothing balm
Poetry beckoned, creativity calmed.
