My Life is Like

My Life is Like

A Poem by James Mckay

My life is like a carousel
Up and down
Going around
I'm not sure when
the ride will stop

My life is like the bumper cars
Back and forth
Slamming and slamming
I'm not sure if I'm
getting whiplash or not...

My life is like the roller coaster
Twisting and turning
G-rolls and loops
I'm not sure that I
can hold in my meal

My life is like a merry-go-round
Faster it spins around
Dizziness and nausea
I'm quite certain that I
I'm not liking how I feel..

My life is like the whack-a-mole
I'm constantly dodging blows
My head hurts, I'm exhausted
I'm not sure when I
can get out from under this thing

My life is like tilt-a-whirl
Please slow down like the Ferris Wheel
slow and steady pace
I'm not sure if this
is really, utterly, truly exciting...

My life is like a carousel!

Circling both ways, carousel sideways and Ferris wheel that must be incredibly dizzying. A much enjoyed read. Thanks for sharing.

Tx! Hello my name is James and I'm 46. I began writing at an early age and I'm sure most of our poetry started with "Roses are Red", etc. I'm not sure where my love or desire for poetry came from .. more..
