Week #46 "The River of Life"

3/13/2018

 This river of life that I must cross
The rapids the churning the boil
Year after year constructing my raft
The labor the sweat and the toil
 Cutting corners taking chances
Not the right road to take
It must be correct it must be well done
My life is the one that's at stake
 Just any old twine just any old glue
Just any old nails will do?
The sinking feeling of seeing too late
It all comes apart halfway through 
 Put in the time put in the work
It’s your life my friend that's at stake 
Don't cut the corner that your life depends on…
It’s way too big a mistake!

    I started Monday Morning Poetry Group in April 2017 to share new poems I have written since I published my book of Poetry.
