Thoughts Unspoken

Now end of March: do I hear snow

Is forecast? Flaky news I know

But with fast changes on news feed

Who believes all that we read?

 

Some families host refugees

From distant land brought to its knees

Resilience seems the way to go:

No gas, no lights, no water flow…

 

The chessboard moves another piece

A shift in tactics, but no peace

Fear and trembling in high ranks

Masking truth receives no thanks!

 

Politics has rules arcane

Vested interests now drain

Good intentions – much at stake

 We ponder options on our plate!

 

I speak in riddles once again,

As there are risks in making plain

Thoughts that are by many shared

But this I will say, all are scared!
