Never Far From Nowhere By John Herlihy With the clock always ticking, The present moment just there. The journey spread before me, Never far from being nowhere. A first step always the hardest, The last cry always the loudest. Do larks question where to fly? Do worms question where to lie? Lost in the forest, never been kissed, Or the feeling of never being missed. Life takes me where it wants to go, Along the way, I gather all I know. Always on the way to somewhere, Never very far from being nowhere.

I love the play on words. We seek to go somewhere, but we end up going nowhere.

Well, since I don't know where somewhere is, it remains unknown to me which is......is it "nowhere"? Even the end is somewhere. Oh, you! You always get me thinking deep. You're such a bad boy! 'Love it!

Love ya!

Your poem strikes a universal truth. Regardless of how far we roam, the edge of our life is very close in the course of time.

This reminds me of the Beatles song, Nowhere Man. We're all going somewhere, even if it's nowhere, which is no place to be.
