The Wonder Of Something Poem by Lyn Paul

The Wonder Of Something

Rating: 5.0


She never taught me a thing
But Oh....How I learnt so much

How not, I want to be treated
How much, Love is truly valuable
Materials are so not needed
Trust is so hard to find

Dinner is simply a necessity
Want. Is a great big wish
Hope is waiting around the corner
Nothing is short of happening

Nature is straight out the back door
Magic is under that tree
Rainbows glow with their beauty
Whilst the storm
Gives that answer of nothing
Yet fills you with
The Wonder Of Something

Don't ever be a follower
Simply follow your own path
Breathe your own future
&
Remember
To always be an individual
As proud as you can be

There will always be someone
Who wants your friendship
Even if you do not see




NEVER THINK YOU ARE NOTHING
FOR YOU ARE TRULY SOMETHING!



Thank You Mum

Such very special lessons have to be absorbed in the air you breathe at home.

(continued) .....as for: NEVER THINK YOU ARE NOTHING FOR YOU ARE TRULY SOMETHING! ...............that sounds vaguely familiar. oh, yes! ! my Mum/mom used to tell me (almost every day) : Bri, NEVER THINK YOU ARE SOMETHING FOR YOU ARE TRULY NOTHING! .............then she'd slap me. : ( to MyPoemList. bri :)

i don't understand this line: How not, I want to be treated..........an Australianism? Lyn, your Mum taught some fine lessons! several of them i'd adhere to. but i need Materials in the bathroom. and when on a sightseeing tour of Afghanistan i DO follow a leader; i'm a follower then! (to be continued) ....
