Happy Leap Day, and welcome to Poetic Thursday. Here’s the photo our friend, Pam, and her kitties, Teddy and Angel Sammy gave us. Each week, they host Poetic Thursday at their blog, Two Spoiled Cats.
Here’s my poem:
Dreams To Chase
How it’s done
when you’re young
having fun.
On a dare
without a care
a little scared.
Then comes a day
hair is gray
but still you play.
A slower pace
no rats to race
just dreams to chase.
~These Day Of Mine~
these days of mine 
Wonderful sentiment in your poem and the format. FUN!!!
Love the poetic form and “idea” of the poem…..! All I know is that I would never (NEVER) “ride the rapids” – life’s pace sometimes FEELS like a rapids but fortunately it isn’t.
Pam
Very true – but as you know, I never learned to swim – and as they say – it’s only the good swimmers who have trouble in the water – people who can’t swim don’t go near the shore !!
I love everything about this poem! You nailed it again c
You always find just the right words to make a great poem for these challenges!
