so do our expectations
never met

The only thing to do is to
roll with the wind
and not expect it to
take us anywhere
but to roll along
like tumbleweeds

Tumbleweeds are tumbleweeds
and don't care if their home
is to the left or right
but they are tumbleweeds
rollin' along

And that's what we are
so roll brother

Roll Along

Topic: Lifepoems

As life rolls
so do our expectations
never met

The only thing to do is to
roll with the wind
and not expect it to
take us anywhere
but to roll along
like tumbleweeds

Tumbleweeds are tumbleweeds
and don't care if their home
is to the left or right
but they are tumbleweeds
rollin' along

And that's what we are
so roll brother
roll

You have a very positive/upbeat attitude and there is truth to this poem.

I'm sorry to hear you didn't get into the college of your choice. Keep hanging in there.

Unfortunately we are tumblweeds with aspirations...

Roll,brother roll.

Right on. I enjoyed this. thought it was a great reflective piece for me today- much needed as I ponder my own path.

Thanks for writing.
