Array ( [sid] => 20178 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => MORTAL/LIFE [time] => 2003-07-09 12:35:00 [hometext] => I wrote this poem quite a long time ago, when i was going thru a change of life per say. [bodytext] => MORTAL / LIFE

What life is thine? Ignoring the laws of man and GOD. Letting dreams lead thee by hand into self destruction. What life is thine?
Living minute by minute in the epitome of low society. Going from high to low O’er day to day. What life is thine?
Looking up with a tear time to time with remorse of what thou has done. But doing nothing ;nothing to dry thy tear. Dropping back down into that epitome. What life is thine?
Walking that line that is life; Almost falling into thee abyss that is death. Looking up again with that tear. Thinking what has thou done with thy life. What life is thine?
What shall thee say when wrinkled and wise. That life has been unkind; or that thee has over come the slumps that mortal life has begotten upon thee.
What thee life is thine? Thy question that every mortal shall ask. The question that shall be answered be thy end of that line.
What life is thine?
-RYAN P. SPEAR

MORTAL / LIFE

I like this, old in text and concept, yet forever new by context. Beauty on a page. Or screen.

why thank you for your generous words

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. Â©
