Good Sense From
A Few
By Jeffrey M.
Bowen
The
sky won’t fall
Though
the naysayer says it.
And
bad news never lasts
If we starve all its credit
The
fact of the matter,
Everyone
makes mistakes.
That’s
just how we learn
What is real, what is fake.
Good
sense from a few
May
be just enough glue
To hold our best pieces together
We
live in a world that
Sometimes
will shatter.
But
then comes a time
To look for what matters.
Pottery
lasts
Because
it is fired.
So
a furnace of strife
Shows us how hard we’re wired.
Good
sense from a few
May
be just enough glue
To hold our best pieces together.
There’s
no reason why
We
can’t keep on believing.
No
reason why
We
must be self-deceiving.
We
get lost, we get tossed,
But why lose time grieving?
Storms
never last,
They
run out of rain.
We
all just get wet,
We
all share some pain,
But
the storms will pass by,
So why wonder why:
Good
sense from a few
May
be just enough glue
To
hold our best pieces together.
