278. LIFE

The clouds rolling across the sky
Taking all sorts of shapes and sizes.
The imagination runs wild....
Then I see it - us -
we're there too.
It's starting to become
more clear,
Unfolding like a story.
I know everyone, the places
the objects -
everything is familiar
The pages turn - faster and faster,
But what is the purpose of it all?
I follow it along - waiting, anticipating,
Guessing all wrong
Some things are surprising, while
others are old habits
It's hard to keep up now -
Things are flying by
I try to focus - but everything
is blurred - I'm losing sight
Then there's a call - life -
telling me to live it.
