Rambling

Quote By Poet "Time is a funny thing. It is here, it is gone.
Never to be found again." 

As l get older,
I find the same word has different meanings.
I ask myself,
how can that be?
As a child I played by myself,
I was just rambling around to kill time.
When I started working,
the work day went rambling along.
As a new mom the baby phase,
sure was not rambling anywhere.
Now older and hopefully wiser,
I can see how some words have changed my life.
Now as the years have past by so quickly,
I find myself rambling along from day to day.

As a child, you rambled just to kill time. But as you grew old, you found time rambling away too quickly. Today you ramble from day to day. Beautiful poem. Congratulations dear Paula on your win.

When I first saw the title I thought your poem was going to be about walking but quickly came to realise it was about talking to yourself. I and many others ramble too. It helps the processing of thoughts and emotions and is a healthy thing to do. It can be a form of self support. Loved the poem! Cheers - Gary

We have more in common than I thought Paula!! I an assuming you had no siblings.. I did not, so I grew up learning to think and fend for myself. I think I was a mini philisopher too. Rambling is not stupidity. I call you a deep thinker who shiness! Pangie xx

We all ramble through life but you sound like a wonderful mom and you write beautiful poetry, now there are two feathers in your cap that I know of and I'M sure you can add some more, and all because we all ramble through life. Again a lovely poem, well penned dear Paula. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
