    I Can Shape My Future

    I feel stretched like a lazy house cat
    yawning on the happily lit porch,
    yet how can I so freely
    choose when I work and when I dream?

    I pay little known attention
    to the small voices who manifest force:

    what comes first
    my duty towards God
    right from wrong,

    good vs. evil.

    In the long run
    I know I can't be continuously indecisive
    or I'll be plainly seen

    as the fool still living in the middle.

    My Knowledgeable Counselor
    will strengthen my mind
    and aid by granting wisdom.

    I won't always walk the best path
    but that is how

    one learns;

    life does indeed move on.

    This is closing in two days...

    I guess I won't be holding it though, unless there is a huge influx of participants..

    I'm in, hopefully. I haven't written in AGES, but I'll give it a whirl. :]
    (Message me if I seem to have forgotten - I'm very busy these days, but DO want to try this.)

    I can get you a poem tomorrow if you're still up for it?

    Well, I'm sorry guys. It seems like no one is up for contests. I'm not going to allow extensions, i'm just going to close this contest. Even if you two got poems in, it'd only be 3 poems to judge...

    ahhhh well, i understand. it's alright. :]

    thanks, though!
