Life is but a Journey

Life is but a journey
Constantly evolving
Time is of the essence
Always revolving

A journey for old
Seems ancient to new
Yet for those about to move on
The end is due

The circle is nearly complete
Close to her mythical end
For there is no visible beginning
For those that ascend

Death is a new journey
For dearly departed
Yet they look on with hope
For the journey just started

A journey for young
Continues the chain
For the world endures
Thanks to the gain

Mistakes will be made
Lessons learned
All part of the journey
Benefits earned

Now the young are ageing
We’re halfway there
Pleasant memories mixed
With those which cause despair

Now young are old
And repeating the lesson
Life is short enjoy it
Be wary of its temptation

As they move into darkness
After living in light
They look back with fondness
Give away their fright


Death is a mystery
Father said to teen
Another journey
Into the unforeseen

And now all is peaceful
Though they are sorely missed
Embarking on their journey
Moving with bliss

  1. Interesting how you view life as being a temptation and death has a mystery of bliss! Quite thought-provoking and different!

    P.A.

  2. Back again! 2 things!
    1. You need to adjust your time zone on your posts. Go to "Teen Waves" and the instructions are at the top on the left!
    2. You need a Copyscape icon in your sidebar. It deters people from copying your work. (Have a look at "Teen Waves". It is in the top right! Click on it! That will take you to Copyscape, but click on the link to the main page. There you will see a range of styles. Select the one you like. Copy the code. Return to your blog and click on customise! Click on the add Java Script/HTML element then paste. Entitle it DO NOT COPY. Save it.
    Return to your blog and the image you selected should be there! Ask Michael F if unsure.

    P.A.
