Enthral

Paul Gerard Reed

O, how I love the childish things,

The things of no consequence,

That cause my mind to stall,

The burning topics of that day

The red-hot news,

That isn’t really news at all;

 

How I love to hear excited chatter,

Delivered earnestly,

Intended to enthral,

Telling me absolutely nothing

Of any real importance

Except the most important thing of all

    A lovely poem Paul that emphasizes that what the world calls important is not in the scope of things. Lovely
