Today’s word is “codicil” … any supplement; appendix. (Dictionary.com)
Cold
Is there more that we should know?
Is the life-book not enough?
Is a codicil required,
To make choices, hard and tough?
Apparently there must be more,
Judging from our progress drear,
The more advanced our knowing is,
The more we lose the things most dear.
Where has simple kindness gone?
Forgiveness, love and brotherhood?
The bond of working human hands,
Striving for the common good?
Are these things forever gone?
Then what’s our purpose or our fate?
It seems we’d better understand,
Before it’s finally too late.
