PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

To know is to forget

and all I know is I am set

For the things in the past

are things that do not last

I am ready for what is to come

the obstacles, there will be some.

I can't believe the days of childhood are past

and this is why things do not last.

The meomories are many and few,

of the childhood I once knew.

So for the future we look towards,

with the words of our elders as our rewards.

As adults we will learn as our elders got taught to them

that is how we will teach the youth the same precious gem.

The cycle will continue down the line

even when we've seen our holy sign.

That holy sign that tells us that it's time.
