100 Days As Medical College Dean (D) Poem by Dr John Celes

My anger is all gone;
I am not just alone;
It is a newer dawn
That I see every morn!

My friends may turn now foes;
And add to my new woes;
With foes as friends, life goes;
I have little resource!

To me all are equal;
‘None are perfect, ’ I tell;
Sometimes, I do well yell,
Ask them to go to hell!

The poor shouldn’t stay so poor!
They must be given care;
I pray for their welfare;
But I’m just ‘earthen-ware’!

I think about my past,
The days I was downcast;
Time elapses so fast;
I unfurl the flag atop the mast!

Life appears to be fine,
With pleasant, warm sunshine;
The water looks like brine,
And I don’t drink wine.

But can I achieve success?
It is a wild, wild guess;
I never like to fuss;
My life’s no more a mess!
