Scary World By Keely McAllan

"It's pretty scary to know how quickly time flies" - James Wan


I wrote this poem whilst having a lovely 'writing' date with a dear friend whom I would like to thank for the inspiration! (Thank you Emily!) 
It's a poem about our love and hate relationship with the world and I hope you enjoy the read! ☺

                                      Scary World                                                                                            

The world is a scary place,

It will knock you, block you – you’ll give up the chase.

Every let down, every disappointment,

You see life as nothing but a pesky appointment.

When is enough, enough?

“I’m fine, I’m fine” – until you call your own bluff.

Are you tired of all the “why me’s”?

Exhausted, you fall to your knees.

What if I told you the world is a scary place,

But also a world blooming with grace.

Every time you look for the bad,

You forget and lose the greatness you had.

The universe has its reasons,

Just as the earth has its seasons.

Winter must storm so summer can form.

Stop looking for what’s wrong,

Be thankful, be strong.

The world will be scary and sometimes confusing,

But don’t be afraid, for life is not done choosing. 

Once again thank you for taking the time to have a read!

Make A Change

'Be the change that you wish to see in the world' - Ghandi.

Hi Readers! It's LauraJane here. Happy New Year!! I have been off of the blog for the holidays but I am back now with this poem that I hope inspires you for 2018. I have always tried to make a difference in the world and want to encourage others to do so, it is very important. So here it is! Happy Reading :) 

'Make A Change' By LauraJane Bethune 

Life can be hard, it isn't fair,

Pain and suffering everywhere, 

But through this there is some light, 

We are all putting up a fight, 

To change the world and stop the bad, 

We need to do things that take away the sad, 

Donate blood, donate food, 

Be kind to others, don't be rude, 

Raise funds for those in need, 

It will always feel good to do a good deed, 

And don't forget about the animals too, 

They need help but they can't tell you,

Fight for their rights as much as your own, 

Their feelings also deserve to be known, 

And last but not least, the environment is key,

It is the reason we are here, you and me, 

Recycle and reuse everything you can, 

Let's lengthen the worlds shortening life span, 

Cut down on meat and reduce your waste, 

I know all these things might not be to your taste, 

But like it or not this needs to be done, 

We all must start to work as one, 

To help the world and all of us on it, 

To create happiness and save the planet.
