Tom Kesting Poet Light Verse

This Race

We're all in this race called life, you know...
It's a daily thing and it keeps us on the go.

Some run well and others trip and fall...
But running is something demanded of us all.

Some are weak and some are strong...
And for some the race is not very long.

Sometime I run cold and sometimes I run hot...
And there are time when I don't care if I run or not.

But life is a race from here to there...
And for some the rules are not fair.

I run this race because for me life is fun..
And my friends at Poetry Soup make me feel like the blessed one.
