Poetry 12: change

from Poetry Daily Hosted by Ryan Sumardi

Podcast Link in Bio! Today's poem is brought to you by @random.poetry.ca (instagram). This poem really reminded me of when I immigrated to the United States when I was 6 years old. At first, I was very scared and I thought I was going to lose everything but I was wrong. 20 plus years later I have created tons of new friendships and opportunities through my time here in the United States. This comes to a bigger topic which is change. A lot of people are scared of change but change is good. Change will test you but will allow you to grow as a person depending on how you react to that change.

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011. Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
