Lifes' Game

This is the first poem I ever wrote, when I was 10 years old.

In the snow,

In the rain,

I feel the pain,

Of lifes' game.

 

Happiness or sorrow,

Today or tomorrow.

 

Life is like a game,

Pick a card,

Just like a game,

This life is hard.

Author's Note

I appreciate any feedback on this. I know it's nothing spectacular, but not bad for a 10 year old. :)

I won my first poetry contest, sponsored by the local newspaper, at age eight (the third grade.)

VIETNAM

Vietnam, oh, vietnam;
We will walk to freedom,
Hand in hand;
Our men will fight
To freedom's light
And we pray
Peace will come
To your land.

Actually, I won a school contest in the second grade for

MAY

May it's the day
For happy play;
Drop a glass,
After a bee;
Mow the grass;
That's for me.

Sometimes, our innocent words of childhood say the most! Wonderful write!!

Sure, very good for a 10 year old, couldn't have written it myself at that age, great stuff :)
