Meanwhile, Elsewhere – 8th June 2025

Down in amongst the broken, dirty chaos
Restless rats are awaiting our return
Get me away, get thee away – gedouddaheah!
We’ve all got some loving to learn

Up among the trees and idyllic charms
Of sprawling lawns, quiet, clean and pure
Elsewhere, everything else is happening
We should’ve been there for sure

We gotta leave so that we can come back
To quiet ourselves amongst the noise
Knowing that everything will be waiting there
Ready to share its joys

Another poem inspired by the first part of this post at Spinning Visions blog. I’d forgotten that I’d read it before!
