Description
"Too Fast"I work and learn and earn the whole
day through, repay the stalwart soul
with Prizes for forsaken Pride
so much that I no longer cried
nor pleaded with a broken heart
that life should not so like a dart
be pulled to task and then let loose
to fly too fast through death's dread noose
which lies at man's last drop of life
to cut it short with bitter knife.
I simply want a day to rest.

This is expertly written my friend, your manipulations of the english language shine in this piece. Every line is filled with its own individual meaning instead of merely acting as one more step twords the end of the poem. I'm a huge fan of internal rhyme, and the alliteration lends itself most favorably to this. To top it all off, it's a great message. Well done! Deffinatly a fav. ^^

Wow! I can relate bro. I pastor told me recently that God sometimes stretches us. If we feel comfortable we may not be doing what we should for the Lord. It is all about balancing and priorities. We just have to be careful not to let the beauty of life pass us by while we race along.
