Heartfelt lament in fine form--I'm with you--clever puns on the year 2020 and 20/20 vision. Any reason you make reference to Christmas--was this written earlier?

Added several stanzas to an old stab...John
Comment from Mama Baer
Another wonderful piece! Important food for thought. I reminds me of a favorite saying by Mark Twain: "There isn't time, so brief is life, for bickerings, heartburnings, apologies, and callings to account. There is only time for loving, and but an instant, so to speak, for that." I enjoy reading your skilled work!

That's so sweet😊

Your mono rhyme stanzas are well crafted and present a lot to
consider. There is way too much hatred and anger in the world and
we as individuals have the power to change this. A little kindness can go a long way.

Comment from Eternal Muse
This is an excellent poem where each stanza uses of monorhyme. This is very hard to do, and I give you a lot of credit.
This is thought provoking and mysterious, like your picture. Excellent imagery, visuals and artistic presentation.
Thanks for sharing.

Comment from knowledge
I don't remember ever seeing poetry has each line rhyming with each one after it. Your mind absolutely fascinates me with your versatility.
How long did it take you to write this? Did you have to think about and plan it our or it or did it just pop out?
Professor, I gave you 6 stars for introducing me to this type of poetry and its content.
your Friend, Danny

I never considered myself special--just different...John
Comment from Sherry Asbury
What a strange and intriguing picture that fits your intriguing poem! Your verse is good as well as the rhythm and rhyme. I think you are more optimistic than many of us, but following your lead might really help. Very fine presentation.

Comment from Janet Foor
A thoughtful and thought provoking poem of self-analysis. I couldn't agree more. I loved the mono-rhymed lines and the artwork is perfect for your well written poem. Very well done.

Hi there, I couldn't agree with you more. It's sad to see how decided America has become over so many issues. Herein Europe we watch incredulous and with sadness. I'm half American and I cannot understand how it's come to this. Please get your act together. Ulla:)))

"Always Be Happy, Never Be Satisfied" is my mantra...John
Comment from dragonpoet
This as a good poem of mono-rhyme quatrains which list the problems in the world that we must alleviate. We do have too much discord about vaccines and it seems that discrimination and violence is on the rise.
It would be great if this could stop before Christmas the time for hope and peace.
Keep writing and stay healthy
