Pulse of Life

A walk through life from start to finish.

Pulse of Life


 


Into a world of microbes— born


Without ever knowing why,


A breadth of air fills my lungs


And I enter— with a cry.


 


A flurry of activity abounds


As I am center of attention,


Without ever knowing why—


Like a political convention.


 


Though all the years—of growing wiser


I am tuned to the bigotry of life


Surrounded by the environments


Through which I travel—strife.


 


Then one day—as I become frail


A pulse of life dimming—returning


To the place of where life is at peace


A flickering candle—calmly extinguished.

Good poem William and a nice ending. Is there really peace anywhere in life. You make me stop and think about it.

However, I feel that it is important to have done something along the way. That's probably why I'm being kicked off Authors' Den. Anyway, I like the way you write.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
