Look Alive & Be On Time

Never be in a hazy

State of mind

When there's so much

To gain during your entire

Lifetime

Positive life building experiences

Gratify why

Being in a daze

Is the worst state of mind

To be in

Since the plot keeps thickening

Every day of the week

You're really seeking

A designated line

Perpetuating why

Remaining in one piece

Is a possibility

As long as you choose too consistently

Look Alive & Be On Time

After reaching

The ending

Of a proposed finish line

During the race

For what you desire

Out of your own life

This holds a great message. I remember being told something like this growing up. The whole bright eyed and bushy tailed gig of life.

Sometimes, the lights are on but no one is home ;-) all of us have moments when life feels a bit hazy, like being in a fog. Just keep walking - eventually we find a path that is clear.

yeah, interesting poem, B. It's sad, in a way... you find that lights are on and no one is home far too often.
Thanks for the RR.

[SyberRose]

yes pay attention...as I really dont think people do these days...a high tech world we live in...enjoyed BP:)

if we are sleeping at the wheel...all the best scenery passes us by...as with life...we need to be on our toes to absorb all of it...good and bad...because it is really worthwhile journey into who we become...

nicely penned.

This one vibrates on the page and says 'pay attention' nicely, we all need to stay cognizant in our own lives and for our well being, albeit some days we get side tracked. Well done Bpoet!

I love the title - drew me in as a great message all on its own. You remind the reader to really make use of their time; and don't do anything to muddle it along the way. Great, uplifting piece!

Really nice message woven in nicely flowing poem.
