This short and clever poem, but loveliest worded. CONGRATULATIONS for the second time being chosen as The Modern Poem Of The Day. Hooray for Benjamin Sir! WHY don't you write more poems than only 21 poems? Is that to get on the Top 500 Poets? Also a clever deed. Why do you stop submitting on PoemHunter? Regards, Sylvia FC

This brought a smile to my face and a chuckle from my throat—short and sweet and with a point to it. -GK

Yes this is the human nature, seeing is believing and when you become one you start to think differently.
