Another year end
What does the future portend?
Will broken pacts mend?
About This Poem
Last Few Words: Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Dropping a stone in a pond creates ripples. A match sparks a fire. In each instance the responsibility for the ensuing cascading events can be traced back to the root of the issues - the source.
Style/Type: Structured: Eastern
Review Request Intensity: I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Editing Stage: Editing - polished draft

That damn pesky butterfly in the Beijing garden, eh?
Well, another 940 million kilometre journey at a speeds of 108,000kmh completed. I broke my pact to only fall off the planet a few times but managed to climb back on board with a little help from my friends.
Next year I might make a pact to clamber back onto another planet.

Weirdelf, you are high on Neopoet and aiming higher seeking another planet populated by philosopher poets like yourself. As for gardens, they are present in most places and the butterflies, not being members of the no fly lists, flit wherever they want including the noted Beijing garden..
