The world is ever changing. People seem to have lost the will to slow down and enjoy restful hours. They have put enormous stresses on themselves and others as they try to accomplish more in a shorter time frame. Work consumes their life. Rapid advancement in electronics has produced communication tools which are constantly being replaced with newer and better models. The cost in dollars is high but the cost in personal health is even higher. Leisure time is non- existent. In my poems I have tried to keep in place the things we need to do for enjoyment. I also try to look to the future and express where I think our path is taking us.
