Future Life

With each passing day I learn more  
 
I have to think about my life  
 
I don’t know if I’ll be a wife  
 
I try to pray and not ignore  
 
the signs that make me do adore  
 
The things that help so we can grow  
 
I’d like to find a way to know  
 
How the things I would like to find  
 
How to be a person who’s kind  
 
I only want my love to flow.

  3. Very nice! Probably one of the most gentle Decima’s I’ve seen so far.
    I hope you do keep joining in. I kind of cheat when I write, depending on where the prompt word goes. Like this week, I wrote the last stanza first. 🙂 I knew I would get into trouble trying to get a rhyme into the message if I waited.
    I knew the overall theme and message of the poem I wanted to convey, so I just wrote it kind of in reverse. 🙂

    • I will definitely join in. I don’t think you can cheat on poetry! A lot of times I have to just write then adjust word count, syllables, rhymes after I’m done. I love trying new things though because I don’t think I would do this many different types of writing on my own.
