Mid Point

Paul Gerard Reed

O, that lovely mid-point 

Where the midday sun casts it's light

When the beginning is a distant memory

And the end not yet in sight;

 

That safe half-way feeling

Not young anymore, not old

All feels good in your life

All you touch is gold;

 

Gone, the angst of adolescent years

Yet to come, the swirling oceans of grey

Settled, comfortable and mellow

With dreams still leading the way.

    Lovely poetic expression here. You took me back a few years. A most enjoyable poem and the imagery and pull on the emotions works so well. Great job Paul. May those dreams last.
