Must We Play with Fire?

by Antoinette Kopperfield — Read all 219 poems by Antoinette Kopperfield

Wednesday, December 17, 2003


In thoughts we become one
Our race to the finish
Filling all the spaces
Time endless without holes

Tunnels swirling with love
In and out of eternity
Forgotten roads
Once walked with torn shoes

A tear. Now and then
Though mostly laughter
Funny movies. Funny thoughts
Take us to heaven in our minds

We seek and sometimes find
Pots with gold. Though not always
We have to reap what we sow
And the tunnel becomes thin

We choke from exhaustion…
We stagger again to find the light
It greets our souls but why
Must we play with fire?
