Charles Reese Poet Pantoum

Over the Hill

Over the hill what does those words mean
Are we  no use to those around
Or are we building another's dream
To help them have a life quite sound

Are we no use to those around 
Only if our wisdom seeds have no bed
To help them have a life quite sound 
Instead of one that's filled with dread

Only if our wisdom seeds have no bed 
Will we be without a harvest 
Instead of one that's filled with dread 
I want a life that will find rest 

Will we be without a harvest 
Or will you reap eternally 
I want a life that will find rest 
When I have been all I can be 

Now will you reap eternally 
Or are we building another's dreams 
When I have been all I can be 
Over the hill what does those words mean
