POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Note: This came to mind while I thought of the sorry state of education and the lack of work ethic in the younger genrations along with increasing populations of people with low IQs and lack of work experience.The ones with a sense of duty, work ethic and ability to sacrifice for the good of the community are becoming as an endangered species.


I wrote it in the haiku style of poetry which I believe allows the reader a great deal of freedom to form their own thought impressions and insights. I published it for the first time on my blog today, the 8th of January 2018.

Even without the notes on this poem, the Haiku is fully capable of conveying its meaning. I also share your concern. Thanks a lot, Michael.
