Life Continues

Casey Kelley on Nov 17, 2009

Until it doesn’t.

The waves still crash,

the heart still beats,

the fire turns ash,

and still it heats.

The sun still rises,

the earth still spins,

The mask disguises,

the human sins.

The day goes on,

and does repeat,

with every dawn,

the night retreats.

The fish still flops,

The blood still flows,

until it stops,

and no one knows.

I am the doctor
Who knows your pulse?
Act not at a moment’s impulse
Life shall repeat
History it will create
All human beings
Will continue to procreate,
Writers like me
Who are free?
Will write poetry
My friend for ye

The markers are always there; you seem to be writing your way out of a deep funk; if so, time will become your ally.

Yes, they are still doing that thing they do now. Enjoy the rhythm of nature before the end of the world. Nice rhyme you have there.

Hi there!
