Do You Dare?

Rating: 5.0


Do you dare to be different?
Become an individual,
ignore the rules to some extent.
Prepared to be unusual.
Adopting eccentricity
in everything you do and say
and stamp your personality
on those you meet along life’s way.
You may be seen as arrogant,
afflicted by insanity.
Because you can ignore the cant
Society’s hypocrisy.
Because you’re bold enough to be
able to act naturally.

It's a hard place to get to Ivor, and I don't think many ever do: that state of being ourselves and living it... A bit of age helps us stop fussing about what others think. I think it's good for the health too... Great poem as always. Sharply observant content and not a word out of place... A very merry Christmas to you dear friend, and the healthiest and happiest 08 possible. jim
