Janice Windle - (Ups and Downs Collection) Good News is No News

2014-11-08 1

Good news is no news.
I want to write about
the party that was unmitigated fun;
the day that ended happily as it began;
with no unwelcome incidents between;
the love affair that had no pain in it;
the life that was invaded by no grief,
no disappointments and no fears;
the peace that was not interrupted
by any war or conflict;
pure sounds and visions, unmixed
pleasure, without discord,
with perfect pitch, perfect balance;
I want to write
news that turns no thoughts towards
death and suffering – but what is there to say?
Good news is always no news....
