Serenely smiling, I sail through my day. I won’t give that Person from Porlock the satisfaction!

Keep your temper.

It is yours, and you don’t want to share it

Keep your temper.

You are a great Ent

Walking over the land.

Your time span is as the trees;

All this is petty,

All this will pass.

Keep your temper.

Offer it up as a tribute to the sun god.

Keep your temper.

Solar flares are a bad thing

Life on earth

Is green and good;

Humans and animals

Are to be cherished.

This is but chaff

On the spring breeze.

Be of good temper,

Could there be a more beautiful morning?

Be of good temper.

Breath in the refreshing air

Feel clean and clear of purpose

Life has more than one theme

Don’t sweat the small stuff

It’s all small stuff

Patience Is an ACQUIRED virtue.

    Lovely stuff. Good humour and patience make good bedfellows. If you have that pair, you are set for a good life.

    That was very good but I bet not everyone will know what an Ent is. I do.

    Daisy,
    Love your poem. But Pam is right. Whats a Ent? This is a new one on me. You did an excellent job writing this. Keep up the great work. I love reading your content.

    Ents. To explain or not to explain? Honestly, good humor has been hard to come by this day. Ents are Tolkien tree-shepards; long-lived and slow to anger.
