snoop1130 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 PM pens another poem as morale booster for his Cabinet By The Nation This time it was his Cabinet’s turn to benefit, with Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha’s talented poetry writing still in full flow as he penned another poem for his ministerial colleagues, aimed at boosting their morale by encouraging them to remain focused and work tirelessly for the people. The premier’s poem urged them not to give up when encountering struggles along the way when working for the people, and to use their wisdom instead to overcome them. “Be focused and correct things, one after another. People’s happiness is in our hands,” read the final lines of his morale-boosting verse. The poem – titled “Morale for you, the Cabinet” – is the third recently written by the PM, despite the fact that he earlier said he would “rather keep his mouth shut” after his previous poems sparked a brief verbal tussle among established poets, some of whom who were split over the PM’s verse and additional stanzas appended to his efforts by their peers.

tomacht8 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 “Be focused and correct things, one after another. People’s happiness is in our hands,” read the final lines of his morale-boosting verse. What happens if the rulers do not make the right things? Where is the necessary corrective? Happiness is always there where people can participate and co-decide. I forgot how the word is called but it starts with a "d". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Methinks your poem does not scan, I think you need another plan. Why not copy the works of others? I know a happy band of brothers. Try looking up some Pink Floyd hits; There's one that will thrill you to bits; 'We don't need no education' Everyone needs some thought control.
