Amanda Moore Poet Free verse

Quest

A pirate’s quest was always best
When you were a youngster
A search for knowledge at some college
Might be a quest to conquer
And when you’re old not quite so bold
Your quest for youth grows stronger
And when we’re frail our thoughts prevail
A quest for peace may linger 

The moral of the story is 
Don’t take your life for granted 
Find joy in every minute
And Life’s your seed, so plant it!
