Strives for health and well-being

In his researching

Whose academic talents were many

But soon he will leave

And leave us to grieve

As we'll miss all his wisdom and canny

they need to be listened to

We aren't all the same

There are overseas companies

Exploiting oil and gas for monies

Loosing our sympathies

And making us angries

What it is, not always understood

We did it researching

We did it teaching

And I hope for values we stood

Securing our food, with science in hand,
Against harsh climates, together we stand.

Tomorrow, I’ll present with clarity and grace,
Sharing solutions for a more secure place.

Each step is a struggle, each breath a hope,
Scaling peaks of theory, crossing valleys of doubt.
With perseverance as your anchor and passion as your rope,
We can chart unknown territories where knowledge springs about.

Searching for the link

Yes, there is a link as poems establish the ground of research and innovation

For many years it increased in range

Governments were challenged in court

But they often came up short

A change of legal tactics is what is needed

full of ups and down

the PhD journey.

The SPURN network of countries decided to very much follow its glow.

 Eventually  a new project ENGAGED was submitted

We hoped it contents  and aspirations fitted

4 months later, indeed they did, we won  3.2 million euros and we are ready to go!

So Professor MORGAN was told ENHORABUENA AND Asked whats the secret to winning so much money

He laughed so much, he said 'its skills, a little luck of course and hard work' but this is what makes  the question  so funny.

Whether you win or you lose,  you will strengthen your ability to smooze

So that you become more resilient and persistent to fighting for funds and eventually winning the money, it so funny, my honey

Joined the Research Day rendezvous

But on the Thursday

There was too much buffet

That’s something we’ll have to review...

Yet, her children and young people cry in silence sound.

Mammoth inequalities, they bear so deep,

High poverty, poor health, poor wellbeing and poor developmental outcomes are common to this vulnerable cohort.

Researchers, when will you lend your hand?

To heal the land and hearts of this vulnerable cohort?

HAPPIA steps forth, with hope to ignite a future where darkness gives way to light.

What will you do, what steps will you take?

To mend these lives and promote equality?

But carbon majors continue to flare

Tame efforts by them to stop this global malaise

Has left us often in a daze

Collective effort is the way forward, just to show we care

Now please send your monthly meeting records

Cos Temi she cries

When they don’t materialise

So get tapping on your keyboards!
