Adjustment To Changes Poem by Khairul Ahsan
Adjustment To Changes
By nature, I am averse to a change;
That's the reason people sometimes
Think that I am a bit retarded in my mindset,
Unfit to cope with the ever changing world.
By nature I conform only to the slow changes
With which I learn to adjust, bit by bit.
Once merged with the change, I cling on to it,
Until another one appears and slows me down.
Seen or unseen, the Nature constantly changes,
Slowly and surreptitiously- we being aware or not.
If we cannot continually adjust to these changes,
We would be forlorn as obsolete and redundant.
Of late, my favorite poetry website-‘PoemHunter'
Has changed its format and adopted a new face.
I am finding it difficult to recognize my old site.
It took me two days to be able to post this poem.

I'm not sure what is meant by 'the nature'. If you refer to the natural surroundings on Earth, I'd use 'Nature' perhaps. I'm glad you are still here and finding some success with this horrid format. ; ( bri
Thank you very much for the correct suggestion. I shall edit the poem, if I can, under the new unfamiliar system.
I lost my first 'longer' comment because i did not save it, and PH rejected it as too long it seems.
The same happened with me too. I do not at all like this new system.
I googled your name & 'poemhunter' to find you on PH. As 'we' say in America: 'This new format SUCKS! '
PH now truly SUCKS! It seems to have fallen into inept hands. I too have lost a comment because it crossed 300 words. And the lost comment is nowhere to be found so that it can be edited and abridged.
Someone has rated this poem 1* only. Full respect to the reader's judgement! In last seven years, I couldn't rate any poem with that kind of rating. Perhaps, I am a bit more generous than some. : )
Change changes constantly confusing but it happens. I am sure we will get used to this new look.
Yes, I too hope so, that we would soon get used to the new format. I cannot change paragraph under the new system. The moment I press Shift+Enter to start a new para in the comment, the comment gets immediately submitted and saved. Can you help me? Thanks for your comment.
