A Trek of Tracks Made and To Make

Treks of Tracks of the past, current and future, we make

Treks of Tracks of a noted past: 
Made mostly in our childhood days
This upon playing childhood games
and implicated in innocent playground escapades

Treks of Tracks of the past, current and future, we make:

Treks of Tracks of a notable past: 
These made mostly in our long ago childhood days
This upon playing childhood games
and implicated in innocent playground escapades

Treks of Tracks left on dusty baseball diamond fields 
and behind schoolyard scenes
This like those of our first fresh young puppy love endeavor
Then, a graduation to be a high-school novice, neophyte, newcomer, neutered

Treks of Tracks, present: 
These present paths are made by repeated foot-falls 
that are made one ahead of the other
These are a dusty foot print shown
A Trek of Tracks, that are of good and bad
These are filled with a composite collection, of people,
friends, lovers, comrades hugged, faced, embraced or chased

Treks of Tracks, made and left walking or driving on long roads 
Tracks of Tracks, left and placed on many white sandy beaches 
Tracks, made frolicking on wet rainy days
Tracks, made in the snow and racing home 

Treks of Tracks, of our achievements put out on 
full top trophy display 
Treks of Tracks, on pen and paper revealing our soul
Treks of Tracks of imprints of events we are making every day

Treks of Tracks, future:
These are to ponder and contemplate then commence
Yet, Treks of Tracks, of our future are already hidden in place:
These are given paths to choose, as a Yes or a No
That it is to take or not to take, this is our future fate
This all eventually will happen with no prolong debate

"These are the Trek of Tracks we make"

"Present paths made by repeating foot-falls". Nothing is more enjoyable than a poet at play. Nice line. Nice poem.

My father in law and uncle in law and brother in law are all railroad engineers for Missouri Pacific which is now the Union Pacific. Brother in law is only one alive now. Those small steps set the steps for our fast growing future. Write a poem about that.

Life is always running in one way or another, just like a balloon clearly flying in time and space. From the childhood playground to the adult workplace, from preschool education to social reeducation, from friends to lovers, from born to death. Life can leave a different trajectory: good or bad. However, the way to the future, that is, the trajectory of life, more precisely, is the ideal, which is worth to treasure. Whenever we think about the past, I wish everyone would say, "God led me to choose a perfect way of life!" In the art of poetry,the language is pure and profound.It is meaningful and thought-provoking with chic rhyme, lively rhythm, rich connotation, which fully arouse the reader's imagination and thinking, meanwhile,plays a guiding role for our life.(by Shmily Wang)

Master of Quatrain: It`s peace in the forest this night; I`ve taken with your amazing verses of light. Admiring your good imagery and hope, I trust in this inner music of becoming in the hand of Light; but The Angel of History (the picture of P.Klee) shows us the two directions of human supposed progress...following good or wrong habits. Best regards and wishes.
