A Time No More Poem by Darwin Henry Beuning

A Time No More

Rating: 5.0


Once upon a time
People were sharing and caring.

Neighbors helping neighbors
Through thick and thin.

Their word was their bond,
A handshake sealed the deal.

Now no more,
In these turbulent times,
You must get everything in

I think that people did trust one another more, in the past. Now a written contract is needed, which is fair enough in some cases.

So true, Hank. I grew up in a small town where nobody ever locked their doors. Contracts were spoken. No need for pen and paper.

A wonderful and perceptive write. So very true. Modern technology took away this bond. Well thought and conveyed.
