UrgencyA Poem by marym224A poem of encouragement for all age groupsURGENCY
I want to write about the places I have seen and not been back I want to write about the people I have met along the track I want to write about my family, my neighbours and my friends I want to write about these things and how the stories end.
I must do this before the chance to write is gone. I want to write about this lovely world of scenery Of waterfalls and rivers, lakes and brooks I've swum with glee I want to write of people who have passed along my way Of loves and mere acquaintances that brightened every day
I must do this before the chance to write is gone. I want to write of babies that I cherished, nursed and fed The games we played and tunes we sang before they went to bed I want to write of birthdays, Halloweens and Christmastides And all the gifts that I received that made me swell with pride
I must do this before the chance to write is gone. I want to write of hobbies that I found to claim my mind Playing the piano, painting pictures, pressing flowers I could find I want to write of souvenirs from places I have been Silver spoons and pottery, show-rides that made me scream . I must do this before the chance to write is gone. I want to write of many things that made my life such fun The fancy dress, the circuses and snowfights with everyone I want to write so much, my friends, you'll wonder how I can Sit here merely talking thus, instead of getting it done!
I must do this before the chance to write is gone.♣ © 2013 marym224Author's Note
