Structured

Beyond the chaos...

Structure.

Time structures our lives
giving it form and cohesion. 
Furniture structures our space
giving it shape and form.

Structure.

Activity structures our days
giving meaning and purpose. 
Family structures our very beings
giving definition to our place in the world.

Structure.

Giving order to the Chaos.

This is very beautifully written!

An extremely perceptive piece; flash of brilliance, really.
One prime directive of mankind is to make order of chaos. Without doing so sufficiently, we cannot retain; we cannot build; we cannot function or progress.
(Personally, of course, I rather enjoy making a little chaos out of too much order.)
"Structured" is built on rarely-stated wisdom that inevitably must appeal to man's basic nature--which explains why, Judy, your poem is a winner.

LOL! I should have written this! I live for structure, kind of quasi-OCD about it!

Just thought I'd say,
This deserves two reviews.

A nice poem which relies on structure to show the importance of structure within your life. Again, a masterful economy of words is shown here.

Very interesting..I've never thought of these things this way.
But it's so true; all four statements were spot on.
"Activity structures our days
giving meaning and purpose."
Exactly :)
I "build" my weeks in advance so the days aren't wasted..You said it well.
Very, very nicely done.
