Rambling For a Better, Safer World

Rambling For a Better, Safer World

A Poem by Arthur Weil

So much, so good, so now

So do, so make, know how

What unknown fate did bring me here?

In fear I act like my life is dear


To coin a phrase

Describe a place

Portend of global warning, so sad

Imbalance of our earth that's bad


Calamity of chemicals all ignored

In oceans, atmosphere, death is stored

Some of us are too busy making a living

Most of us are a generous lot and giving


Much easier to forget

Why worry, guiltily fret

OK to sing out of tune

While love and lovers swoon


Learn how to use the new inventions

To tease and stumble now with good intentions

Along the way earn new treasures

Devote to happiness, and health leisure


Conditioned, I share, I do my part

I'll do my job, love it with a lighter heart

For now I too want to simply be free

Along the way I'll be a happier me
