In the chaos of tumultous times everyone knows what they would do but no-one knows what we should do, it's just a cocophony of noise.
Only the weapons seem to know their purpose.

Thank you, Graham, for reading and for your comment, I hope the threat of conflict, that no one can win, will bring about meaningful worldwide talks for peace, I fear that I am being a bit naive but at least I can dream.
Thank you also to Nigel, Tom D. Hugh, and Manish for your likes.
This is one of those poems that just turned up with very little needing to be changed.

Up to now Robert ( last stanza ) in my case, that beautiful moment has thankfully been just that,
even if I did/do have to totter among my creators contradictory contrivances on the journey 😁
cheers

There is very little in the news currently that elicits anything other than negativity. The world cannot be allowed to slide into
another global conflict even though some would most certainly benefit from it. in the words of the song it's a question of balance!

The being caught in a dangerous web analogy is sadly incredibly accurate. Two very dangerous spiders fighting over the spoils it seems.

The white stormy weather
Brought me the feather.
The wind will harm,
The winter has come.
The snow will cover the land,
My friend will give me his hand.
He'll give me a magical ring,
And I will dream of the spring.
The springs come from dreams,
It seems they're quick streams.
Like apple trees in ball gowns,
Like fresh green lawns.
The trees again are dressed,
The happy couples are blessed.
The hearts are filled with light,
Springs come with delight.
The ice will melt into spring,
The wind warmth will bring.
Traces of snow will be gone,
I admire a white nice swan.
The spring steps will wake me up.
My appetite for warmth I'll work up.
The green grass will be new,
My feet will be wet in the dew.
From the warm lands, the spring comes,
The birds' songs make a joyful alarm.
Spring looks like a young girl,
Nicely dressed and looks like a pearl.
Girls believe that happiness is near,
Very soon they hug their dear.
The winter is no more in our space,
The spring has come in its full grace.

Thanks sharing this; I really enjoyed it. I particularly like your vocabulary, and I thought the half-rhymes were great. And it builds to a wonderful resolution in the last stanza!

Dear Mr. John, I am happy to report your letter to Mr. Musk has been well received here in California. After reading it to my husband and eliciting a large guffaw, my husband texted the link containing the letter (amazing what one can send by post nowadays) to his fishing buddies (who frequently text each other joking comments about the wonderful world of politics). My husband also read the letter to the old guys from our church who meet for coffee on Wed. mornings; apparently the table erupted in laughter. So, Mr. John, thanks to you, much of Calif. is laughing. Long live poetry!

Dear Rolf,
You sound so hurt, it makes me sad and I am sorry for your hurt.
You also have a point, I am even more sorry for that.
Please, please believe that we are not all so insensitive, I can't think that any member of WOL. would ever use that term.
Keep writing
