Valerie Sherman Poet Free verse

Middle of the Road

Regardless how your events are dealt and spent
             Articles controlled by those you may need to repent
"LIFE GOES ON IT DOESN'T STOP"- regardless how much you resent.


Each passing second, minute       "LIFE"        continues to on it's way.
Constantly marches ahead, it       "GOES"      forward never looking back.
Each second, minute all press      "ON"          becoming days and years-
Dictated not by you, or me-          "IT"            doesn't skip a single beat or step.
Yet, as an armed guard it          "DOESN'T"    wink or even glance
Giving false illusions it will            "STOP"       creating your timeless moment.
