My Poem

Memories

At all moments life's precious
With all the chattering and laughter
With its pain and sorrows

Life's a mocking bird
With you at times
Against your willful cries

Strong ties from heart to heart
Keep safe and bonded together
Left twisted and bent...
Like a broken doll

To say it in simple words
Expressing a thousand emotions
Life's but a walking shadow,
Always has, is and will be
DARK!!!

Hi, this is a poem that I made with a little help from my two older cousins and the memories they reminded me. Life I have discovered is a continual battle of good and bad, big and small, beautiful and dark. You had to have it all to know the importance of living!

My Comment

Hi Jacob....
