Revel in Routine
Oh the surety of the coming day
When we rise from our beds
Reaching for the alarm
And raising our weary heads
Getting ready with programmed precision
Turning on the jug
Cutting lunch, getting dressed
Pouring boiling water into the mug
Going about our day or night
The only interruption
Is when our transport is delayed
Or technology has caused disruption
Checking out our appearances
To last the work days pace
At last leaving through the door
To start the pre-dinner race
Routine is the new 2021 blessing
Of giving as well as receiving
Value the lessons of the past year
And leave behind 2020 misgivings

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
