Not A Simple Thing Poem by Lyn Paul

We can't change anything yet we strive and strive to change the impossible is how we'll survive.

not a simple thing surely, but let it start with me, the change I want to see in the world. lovely write Lyn.

a great write with reality in mind

Lyn, this is beautiful. I would have said I can't change anything Not a single thing... but we all have different manners of speech. As a former English teacher, however, I have to tell you that you should use LIE instead of LAY in line eight.. LIE is an intransitive verb; it needs no direct object. Lay is transitive; it needs a direct object. What is confusing is that the past tense of LIE is LAY and the past tense of LAY is LAID. Today I will lie in bed all day. Yesterday I lay in bed all day. Today the hen lays an egg. Yesterday the hen laid an egg. Excellent work. Keep it up.

I must see light in each new day... What a powerful and positive perspective! Well done my friend.

Where there is hope there is life Where there is life there is love. Where there is love there is poetry telling us that All is not in vain. Beautiful message, Beautiful, poem

A lovely poem Lyn and a great sentiment.

So heartfelt Lyn, with such honesty and such beautiful lines with a great ending! I love this excellent write!
