George Cooke Poems

Oh how easy it is to ignore
Certain matters which we choose deliberately not to know.
People are affected all the time
Yet we don't give a dime
...

The call makes the difference
It ignites a roar
Brings to the fore, the inference
Of what is in store.
...

Where is the love we yearn to experience?
Where is the long forgotten acquaintance?
Where is the promise to love and embrace?
Where is the challenge we are called to face?
...

The gathering darkness begins to enfold
All in its path, rock, squirrel and sparrow.
Casting a pale, over all its sees,
Causing a tension, a sense of unease.
...

The Best Poem Of George Cooke

What's The Fuss?

Oh how easy it is to ignore
Certain matters which we choose deliberately not to know.
People are affected all the time
Yet we don't give a dime
As "it's not us"
So "what's the fuss? "

Why, spread awareness about critical matters?
Or understand the plight of our fellow trotters,
Or even empathize with those in need
Or even think about a good deed?
As "it's not us"
So "what's the fuss? "

We never seem to realize
That, issues we would never visualize
Could very well happen to you and I
That's when you would stop to say "oh my! "
Would you then say "its not us"
So "what's the fuss? "

You won't be able to look away
Or click a button and scroll away.
Reality strikes when you expect it least
And it certainly is a beast!
So stop the whole "it's not us"
So "what's the fuss? "

Help others face their worlds of reality
With your best and strongest ability!
Make a difference in the life of another
Offer encouragement and support, be a brother
‘Cause it's ALWAYS about us,
As a friend is definitely worth the fuss!
