EVERYONE'S TALKING ABOUT........

EVERYONE'S TALKING ABOUT........

A Poem by andrew mitchell

There was a time
When life was fun.
The days seemed longer
When they were young.
But now they're older
Their days seem short.
Their chores are longer,
More time is sought
To start their hobbies
They haven't begun
While all their faculties
Are still number one.
A race against time
To reach their goals
While they're in their prime
Before life dissolves.

Hi Andrew. Wow! What great cadence as you read. What great word choices to be read. What great flow down the lines. What great adherence to syllable count. All those things and more are why I think is one of the greatest poems you have written since I've been on site. You have raised you own bar here, now go for it!!! LUUUUUV this, alf

It isn't just hobbies that one wants to get done. All of the dreams of youth while growing into adulthood. Life is so short, if we do not attempt to at least try doing those things, one day we will be too old and feeble to even dream or try. Valentine

We learn too late.

Time is the most valuable assets. We learn too late. Don't waste time on useless things. Find the tings we want to do and enjoy them. Good logic in the excellent poetry.
