Writer’s Island prompt Vision of the Future
Vision of the Future
The vision of the future
Is blurred
No hard edges
And it is not a place
About which one can feel secure
Dire predictions
Are made daily
On the news
But who is to say for sure
Follow the thread
Rack and ruin
I never hear anyone
Say anything positive
Nothing to hang your hat on
For all practical purposes
Life on this planet is over
Dead and gone
Make do with less
Nothing to hope for
No dreams to dream
And yet life seems to go on
One day at a time
After all we are yesterday’s
Vision of the future

Sunday Scribbling Prompt #273 Give
http://sundayscribblings.blogspot.com/
Too often we think of “give”
As “give” to me
“Give” me your hand
“Give me your promise
“give” me your heart
How close “me ” follows “give”
Maybe better
We allow “me” to lead the way
Change the question
What can I give
Let me “give” to “you”
