RE: It’s Time (An Original Poem)

in #poetry2 years ago

This poem speaks to my heart, if only we can realize that our time here is temporary so we need to make every moment count, build up instead of breaking down, grounding ourselves and leave behind a legacy that will help future generations!

It’s time
to awaken from
the delirium
of our egos’
blistering fever,
to say no more,
and finally
learn what
it is to be civilized.

Wondeful wise words , beautifully said Eric!

Thank you! Build up instead of breaking down that is the perfect way to summarize it, Lizelle. So many people are driven by their egos and have a hard time seeing past their infatuation with themselves.

I hope you and the family are doing well. We're finally settled in after our Arizona trip. Spring is finally here in Minnesota. The leaves are just now coming out. It seems to get later and later each year.
