Normality

Here's something I would like to share
without being extra formal
because it's perfectly normal,
it's true for us all anywhere;
I am quite sure you are aware
whether or not it's slow or fast
there's one thing that can be forecast:
and that is that it is not strange
to experience lots of change
no matter how much time has passed.

Prompt: Three Things Challenge #252: Passed, normal, change
Poetry form: Décima

    Your bio says you are an astronaut? Tell me more. I’m a big fan of the space program.

    Change for the better, I can go for —
    It’s change for change sake that I abhor.
    I exclude Mother Nature, who will do what she will….
    But we’re not Mother Nature, coloring valley and hill.
    We thirst and seek heights, but we’re just Jack and Jill.

      Unwarranted change is a demonic curse:
      far from making things better, it makes them worse.
      I blame the new brooms, those who refuse to see
      that what works well for them may not work for me.
      It’s true, we may be just Jack and Jill: but still
      We oft recognise what lies over that hill.

    Normality
    Maintaining and protecting what is there, and creating good for others.
