In Life

Is it true that some love and peace is all you need? 
To gain them as you strive, you lose your peace indeed! 

Is right right and wrong wrong now? morality swapped
Today's wrong may be morrow's right, it can't be stopped

I search for a thing, in vain, at home everywhere
To get it later, when new thing I search, elsewhere

I feel I can't wait to get something that I yearn
Though the moment I get it at last, all thrill gone! 

I try to hold this moment before it pops fast
That's it's beauty: this fragile bubble won't long last

Sad that some much of this in true in our society and maybe in other societies as well. Reads like a good contender to me for the contest. Way to go. Thanks for sharing and for stopping by my page. Sara

You are so right we are never completely happy or right or wrong about any thing because life is dynamic, we have long hair we cut it, we laboriously grow it again enjoy it long but decide to cut it again. I buy a dress I have fallen love with only to let it hang in the cupboard, it feels wrong to wear. Love your poem my friend, hugs, blessings, Jennifer.
