Only a Visitor

Going back!
                     Not being a part.
                     A well known return
                     With no book to start.

                     Only a visitor
                     Not able to stay.

                     A worn out excitement
                     To brighten a day


                                  Jennifer Ryan Laur

Sweet poem! We are all visitors living our lives on this earth for a few years and leave when our exit comes. Let's enjoy this journey with awareness. Great message!

We are all just visitors here, biological masses bumping around in the dark hoping to find some light. Nicely penned, Jen.
