A journey

by catherine   Jun 18, 2007


A journey to go
A ball to throw
A distance of years
Full of happiness and fears

Fun and games then finger paint
The young cant wait
They wish to grow
Soon to knit and sew

Time is wasted
Growing old is hated
The old think of their youth
They tell stories with truth

We start and end the same
What happens between is the flame
Flicker and burn
Even when the winds turn

A distance of years
Full of happiness and fears
A journey to go
A ball to throw

    Wow i really liked this poem 5/5 especially this stanza:

    We start and end the same
    What happens between is the flame
    Flicker and burn
    Even when the winds turn

    so true that we start and end the same. keep writing!
