Paula Goldsmith Poet Rhyme

Where Are We Headed

Where are we headed in life,                                              I do not know peace or strife.                                              Life is but a journey that needs balance and love,                anxiety will make love flee like a flying dove.            On this pathway,                                                            we find we need to pray.                                                  Evil wants to snatch us,                                                  like lust-not a plus.                                                        Where are we headed in life,                                            a day of peace or exotic wild life.                                      I hear your many desires,                                                as we sit under the stars by this fire.                                You say you want joy,                                                     it is work and not a toy.                                                  Where are we headed in life I do not know,                      this past year has been really-really low.

Panagiota Romios April 6, 2021 at 4:03 PM Life has never been perfect. Some years awful, some great! Love your poem, well done. I love your honesty. We are not all in a low nor high space. If you are a believer, you know God is in charge.. As Crelo Dollar, the minister said... If you have a roof over your head and food. You are better off than most on this Planet. Anything over that is gravy. TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST~ TOUGH PEOPLE DO Bless you Panagiot Paula Goldsmith April 7, 2021 at 8:12 AM Thanks for your note. Glad you love this write.
