Life We Lived In Between

Life We Lived In Between Found new poem existing in my next thought And to write down wondered whether or not If I really should so that you now could read Which is sure to fulfil your want and need. Write it down this instant for sure I must Upon your mind wonderful poem will thrust You can easily comprehend and understand My perfect poem for you that I had planned. Completed another voyage after we had gone And life each day there still goes on and on Exactly like it had when we were there before They waited for what next God had in store. Each poem I write always will meet a need When you are cooking food or planting seed Either painting picture or writing poem down For each person who exists all over town. While I am here what will they be doing there? Raising a family and then trying to take care Waiting for another member to be married Later in womb one more baby being carried. Precious baby appears and life starts anew And if it hadn't been for both me and you Life would no longer exist or live anymore Which is why God had made us each for. Eventually into past all of our lives will fade After loving life while sitting in the shade Maybe playing in park as we run around Then we all die without a peep or sound. Sperm and egg met without a single sound We even later did die not making a sound But what matters most is what we have seen Existing in long life we lived in between.

I still have so much to learn. It is all a matter of writing more poems in a lot of cases. The more you write the more fun it becomes. Jim Horn
