''The Poem That Changed the World''

Dateline: North America
the year: 2005
A business man's inspired thoughts
are helping others thrive
For seven years now almost eight
each week a new creation
Part proverb mixed with good advice,
and even affirmation
"I call these poems life rhymes,"
says Walt Goodridge to explain
"Inspired thoughts inspired by
the modern day mundane."
From emails to elections
wars and even Oprah's show
Where subjects fall from week to week
you never will quite know
These rhymes can save your marriage
even help you raise your child
They'll offer ways of coping
when at times life gets you riled
They're simple yet profound
and range from earthly to sublime
Like lyrics from a song
they're teaching even as they rhyme
Some say he's speaking just to them
some see themselves and grin
And others say they give voice to
the still small voice within
These words of wisdom work
by pulling peace from stress and strife
They change the way you view the world
and how you live your life
Can poems change the world?
well, fans worldwide will say they do
For Life Rhymes change the world
for what they change first, friend, is YOU!
