To Plan
Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2005 1:05 am
This poem was one that I wrote suddenly, thinking on the difficulties that Anthentar is having as he prepares for his final year of what we call "High School" to end and for his "real life" of responsibilities to begin. I understand these insecurities, for I felt them likewise, as have most that have passed through that period of the "Senior Year" of High School, when one is thinking of what he/she shall do for the rest of his life, and how to go about accomplishing that goal.
'Tis always wise to plan ahead
For tales of sorrow do follow
Yet in the making of the plans
Dreamers dream while pigs wallow
So wilt thou bathe in murky mud
Or send thy mind from earth to sky
For though the swine in comfort rest
The Dreamers send their hopes on high
And in their minds and hearts they sing
For their desires' true fulfill
And as they strive and work to solve
Their futures shine and bring a thrill
Now Anthentar get up for now
And bring thee forth thy applique
For if they shun your noble cause
E'en so you shall win out the day
'Tis always wise to plan ahead
For tales of sorrow do follow
Yet in the making of the plans
Dreamers dream while pigs wallow
So wilt thou bathe in murky mud
Or send thy mind from earth to sky
For though the swine in comfort rest
The Dreamers send their hopes on high
And in their minds and hearts they sing
For their desires' true fulfill
And as they strive and work to solve
Their futures shine and bring a thrill
Now Anthentar get up for now
And bring thee forth thy applique
For if they shun your noble cause
E'en so you shall win out the day
