Sai Lin Lip Poet Free verse

Aspirations and Actions

When we're young
Full of aspirations
Full of time 
Full of ability
But actions delayed
Like most of the politicians
When we're old
Too little aspirations
Too little actions
Because too little time 
Too little ability
Like the common people
But aspirations and actions 
Are parts of a bond
Or a pair of lovers 
That can't be separated
As politicians and people 
Are closely related and dependant
Politicians got the power and authority
For actions
People got the votes
For aspirations
And fair and square indeed
The world first created by God

Gershon Wolf June 29, 2022 at 7:56 PM Love your reflections on the bond between aspirations and actions. There's an old Roman saying in Latin that seems to back you up 100%: 'Ad astra per aspera.' It means 'To the stars with hope.' How about that?!
