Not placing what you have.

By bundleofdaisies

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A day in the life of your neighbor     can you describe it all in a single word upon your lips, my hands tremble. Speaking of a higher power,     a power so strong, a country it may lift. A day in the life of your mother sweet and dainty she goes on with her day, which has no end.     When will she break through will she break through?     A day in the life of your husband, not knowing where you will end up. Choose a day when you will decide         what needs to be done. A day in the life of your daughter     Whispers soft songs in her ears as she lays sweetly upon your chest as her heart beats       and beats A day in the life of a stranger   Who will you be today but a bum and nobody to another   stranger walking by will you say hello to someone? will you stop for anyone? A day in the life of yourself       not placing what you have unempathetic to the world your surroundings. Call out     save what is precious Have a day in the life of another.Excuse my poem called The NEW Ryhme, however if you enjoyed this, please check out my other poems, Simply, Soup of the day, and A different kind of goodbye.
