Poem 36 - 24-10-06?

Walking through my life

I see lots of bits

And pieces



The teddy I rescued from the bin

And refused to give up

The garden shed where

I got my first splinter

My little pony

Whose hair my Daddy would plait for me

My little kitten

Who we buried under the big oak tree

The convent I'd pass

On my way to school

The photocopied pages of poetry

That nudged me in the right direction

My set of knives

From chef class

The restaurant we'd go to

After our shopping spree

The club that smelled like pee

But we loved it

The Scrabble board

That brought us together every Sunday



Now I stop

For the bits and pieces have stopped

The road before me

Stretches out

Unmapped



Taking in what's behind me

I go forth

For I am not finished

Very, VERY good !

This is honestly the first nice poem I read on Yahoo! Q/A and I heartily congratulate you. Don't change anything to it, and keep going !

You're an artist



(PS I am a painter now but I used to do some poetry earlier)
Reply:wow. i like it! very nice. i can picture in my mind a road with all these things happening from your life, and then you get to the present and you still have time to make more memories. well done!
Reply:I agree with Jacq, you certainly have a talent for words. Are you intending on getting your works published professionally?? Might be a good idea.



Well done.
