Kerplunk

Sometimes we get stuck in place

And all the dreams we used to chase

Have vanished, so it’s time to face

The fact our world has shrunken.

 

The plans and goals we’d once embrace

Have left without a single trace

And looking forward, we must brace

For hopes, once high, now sunken.

 

However, there’s a saving grace –

We simply have to slow our pace

As lofty futures we erase,

Not letting any funk in.
