Starting Over

Starting Over poem Lionel Derbyshire Have you ever been at the start all over again .. The well of empty confidence Where your sun don't rise. You go around in circles Looking for the start. Bashings of internal pity. When was your face last Happy ? Worried lines are no disgrace Your face is still pretty. The hands stretch hopefully At the start of all over. How are you going to cope. You thinking a long rope. Happiness is at the no no .. There is a station at the train And the rain falls dry. Look to the ant stumbling by. Pulling a tiny leaf by. Watch the bird flying Up and down having fun. The mouse has passed the trap The cat's tale is sleeping. Confess and pull .. Yourself out of The start over. There is another Train waiting At the station Leavin for a new Starting over.
