There’s nothing new under the sun, they say.
There’s nothing new under the sun.
It’s all shared experience and common emotion.
There’s nothing new under the sun.
Seen it all before, they say,
We’ve seen it all before.
Life is a circle, spinning around.
We’ve seen it and done it before.
I want to do something different, we say.
Need to do something different today.
I need to express, to answer a quest.
I want to do something different today.
Why bother your arse with a plan, they say?
Why bother your arse with a plan?
God will just laugh and change it, they say.
Why bother your arse with a plan?
If I don’t do something worthwhile, I say.
If I don’t do something worthwhile.
I might as well die and decay, I say,
If I don’t do something worthwhile.
I have a purpose for life, I shout.
I have a purpose for life.
I just have to figure it out, I say
I just have to figure it out.
There’s something new under the sun today
I’ve never seen it before.
I searched for a reason for life, I say.
I knocked and He answered the door.
There’s something new under the sun, I believe.
There’s something new under the sun.
Each unique soul has a goal, I believe,
That’s something new under the sun.
Great rhythm and use of repetition to drive your poem. Fantastic ending. 🙂

Thanks. I don’t know why I’m so into rhyme just now. You guys must have affected me. I can hardly shout the kids in for dinner these days without thinking in rhyme.
Children, come for your dinner,
I have prepared a beautiful repast.
The dog’s sniffing round it suspiciously,
So you better get down here fast.
What do you think? Could this be a problem?
I’m scared to wish anyone luck!x
