From that Cave to the Cave

World Poetry Day!

To commemorate the day, I present:

From that Cave to the Cave

I was pulled out of a cave,
Screaming my head off
An unknown future to brave
Seemed to me quite tough.
I crawled into the bright light
Till I finally found my own path.
Sometimes all seemed right
Until one faced it’s deep wrath.

A dear, loved one I found
Other loved ones we made.
To the top I was bound
My star would never fade.
Then the body began to crumble
As Time it’s ugly head reared
Quietly into another cave to tumble
As Life from me finally veered.
