Reflection

kitty the naughty poet

Hunger runs alongside desire

in the race against time and health

tick all boxes in the bucket list

years of dreams pass by in the blink of an eye

happiness outruns sadness

watch the children shoot up in a second

embracing the pain from knowing

love passed through this space

store moments of joy in the memory Bank

to pass through the minds eye

when death comes knocking on the door

knowing he comes for us all.
