Seeking My Mark
I’m always looking out for opportunity,
To make a mark upon this changing world;
But sometimes I act with too much impunity,
And find myself in trouble, lost and hurled.
Whether facts or poetry, I love to learn,
And share my knowledge with the world online;
But sometimes I forget to wait my turn,
And end up in a heated debate or whine.
I feel quite dizzy from this restless life,
I wonder if I’m doing something wrong;
But then I look outside and see the strife,
And realize that I must still be strong.
For there is beauty in this world as well,
The colours and the rainbow in the sky;
They remind me of the stories I can tell,
And fill my heart with hope and joy and sigh.
