Dante’s Tours
August 13, 2008◊
Welcome to Life
Where the lucky
Are hurt young
And the unfortunate
Die numb
Have a seat
It’ll take you through
I’ll start you as a child
Warm & new
You will
live
love
hurt
and die
Make people happy
Or ruin their lives
I promise you’ll like it
And the price is fair
Pay me anyway you like
For I haven’t a care
The rules can change
Though without notice
You can bet anything
That’ll teach you what hope is

Profoundly poignant, Polar.. wow. This is really good!
Janet – Thank you for the alliteration & the kind words. It’s my first shot at verse. I enjoyed it and must try more. Dobry.
Hope…. where would we be without it.
‘specially when there’s nothing else left.
Fire Byrd – You are right. Hope always seems to be the last door before Doom & Dawn. Thank you. May your Heron fly ever higher.
