Fireworks are completely random...they'll fall on anyone, not just the homeless.

The Aussies cannot turn their back on the tourists money. NYE is an incredible experience in Sydney that I have been lucky enough to experience. It takes so long to organise it would be impossible to stop the night and foolish too. The waterfront businesses, shops, restaurants, bars and boat trips would lose millions! Get over it and look forward. Spend more money on early cool season burning (which didn't happen this year) to reduce the impact of the dry season. Saving a buck here and there is short-sighted. Lose the semantics and manage the land properly!

There, that should put a smile on your face Don, a pommie telling you what to do for a change!

Happy New Yer to al my Aussie mates (believe it or not there are quite a few).

I agree with you. This new day has made you differently serious poet. I'm used to your humour.... Although your concern for poor n homeless is thought provoking.... Fireworks is much of waste.

Raising Awareness poet!!

Jasmine, Po you see's a rhymer
(Ushered in some prose)
Easy, simple stuff to do
All done, there ya goes....

Rhyme on other hand Jasmine, is a very skilled art. Takes years and lotsa practice to reach our skill level (wouldn't you agree Po?) We are highly regarded and sought after on WOL, ....despite never having won poem of the week........such is life

Don't fall off coaster laughing loud
Can't get insurance, why? becos
Companies they want to see
Something real before they toss.....

Money 'way on coaster falls
Whether low or whether tall
Tried to tell them we are real
"No-can-see", if so, reveal

I am surprised no-one has commented on this.

Sadly, greed rules the world.

I feel we maybe were born with a greed gene. Science should now be able to cut this out? Problem - Many rich people base their lifestyle on greed. Trump would not want his greed gene removed and taken away from his future progeny. He donates heaps of cash to greed-gene research. Big business for greed-gene investment these days.....

Greed rules the world......

I appreciated the link John. Thankyou. If I can borrow one of the comments:

'Both blazing meteors in a world of mediocrity'

Its a bit like eccentrics. In UK they are treasured. In Aus eccentrics and tall poppies are flattened. I'm living in the wrong country.

Oh BTW Bert, having nothing to do, and only 5 fingers to help him, came up with 2 for 1s and the same for 2s.. Ethel, having done a bit of Googling on atomic energy levels told him he was correct. If he had persisted with 2p 6 would have been correct. Ethel is now teaching him to increase his mathematical ability by using a 6th finger.

Which hand is that on Eth?......right or left)......

Being naughty - like being rude,
Can offend the die-hard prude
But if they inform and/or entertain
Most, i'm confident, will remain ?

Regrets!

Wishing Everyone on WOL a Very Happy New Year! I've really enjoyed taking part on this site that I've just discovered this year. It was a nice alternative to the usual social media platforms!?

Jon .... I also read this a few times (enjoyed of course)

I don't know the circumstances behind this, but it would appear that some loud-mouthed fool thinks he's got the better of you.
I doubt that his victory will be long lived.
Bring on that wrath and let him have it

Cheers Kevin

Here in the States
there are always news stories about
people finding babies in dumpsters
it is not common but on the other hand
it is not rare.
People are too stupid to use birth control!

Ah! Losing your phone is more tragic than losing the love of your life in today's time....i can feel your pain although now broken into million pieces, but somehow it can still feel your feel again.

Buy a new one Donny dear, latest and new that can serve you life long. Really well.

Toilet poet recommends
Sitting on the toot
Ridding all the shitty stuff
In the bowl it put

Push the shit-flush button
Shit! there goes my phone
Dropped in in the toilet bowl
Moan moan moan
