Ready

We are young
We are strong
Ready for all that lies ahead
The taste of the world
Fresh on our tongues
The path of our lives
Is ours for the sculpting

More random sleepless brain vomit... Please don't judge me by this.

i like how this poem opens up to the senses.....some say there is nothing new under the sun, but with youth comes freshness, newness and this poem nails that idea.

[Corset]

ah well, this one allows for some breathing room. It's lovely and uplifting and hopeful. reminds me of that song, love is a battlefield, can't remember who sings that...oh damn...was that Pat Benatar? yeah I think it was. nice :)

Short, sweet, to the point. Very clear and easy to read.

[Barbara Walker]

A short, simple piece that describes the optimism of the young!

[SlightlyOdd]

This very simplistic and ill defined but good meaning i have to admit sounds like a rough draft I'd like to see this expanded

[Michael X]

to me, this describes destiny and the variables that enliven such a ponder,
a wise poem that although short, speaks volume, with sensuous imagery

[Fabula]

Short but powerful, you would do well with more sleepless brain sessions :)

[MOON]
