In languages uttered by billions of voices.
A speck in the crowd; an ocean of we;
Were a piece of a puzzle that weve yet to see.

It shifts and it drifts and it throws as us about,
Scared to be in it; more scared to get out.

Travelers all, thru the canyons and hollows;
By dirt roads or highways; were led or we follow;
Burning up lifetimes to find our content.
Layers of footprints betray our intent.

Cross legends and fables; tell stories of yore;
Gathering keys and opening doors.
Through rainshine and sundrops that dapple the shore;
Remembered, forgotten, or simply ignored.

Seeking our path; our rhyme and our reason;
In our own way, and each in our season.

While no one is watching; when no one is there;
While critics are busy attending affairs;
If we stop for a moment and peek through the door;
Wed find the seats empty, and no one kept score. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 248 [topic] => 21 [informant] => softerware [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Everyone is so worried about winning the rat race we call life that there isnt a judge waiting at the finish line for the winner because everyone is running in the race. Always in a rush to get nowhere and yet at the end of the day we sit back and wonder where the day went and why we didnt get accomplished what we had set out to do in the first place. Another wonderful piece that is very well written and flows very nicely keeping the reader until the end. Another great job my friend.

I missed this one, Jaye. Was doing some back page reviewing, when to my eyes in snare, ticked at /'/ware/'/. Keywords you see, to many and me...an unopened gift ensuring a lift.

I feel like our compatriot The Muppster, who. I treasure.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
