A very clever poem!
(Postcript : It was originally written by a 17 year old school girl by the name of Chanie Gorkin as part of a school assignment.)
Today was the absolute worst day ever.
And don’t try to convince me that
There’s something good in every day.
Because when you take a closer look
This world is a pretty evil place.
Even if
Some goodness shine through once in a while
Satisfaction and happiness don’t last.
And it’s true that
It’s all in the mind and heart.
Because,
True happiness can be attained
Only if one’s surroundings are good.
It’s not true that good exists.
I’m sure you can agree that
The reality
Creates
My attitude
It’s all beyond my control.
And you’ll never in a million years hear me say
Today was a very good day.

Word for word. Which I really only mention as someone else is taking credit. 😢😢😢
Yes, I found it on Google. I have put in a credit to her. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
Thanks for that – Have added a credit to her on the post
How interesting! Never seen a poem quite like that. Must have taken a lot of thought!
I was drawn to read it by the title, knowing where it had been written, Then, when I got to the ‘end’ at the beginning, I was just stunned. So clever.
I do not know how you would get your head around writing something like that!! Amazing.
I know – it made my head spin trying to figure that out ! I gave up ….
WHOA
Yeah !!!!
I read this one many years ago. It is always refreshing!
It is so clever !!!
