On Perspective

Every ending is a beginning - a writing prompt from Poetic Bloomings.  My response:


'Pessimist versus Optimist'

As you know, Earth is round, my friend,
In life’s race ‘start’ and ‘finish’ do blend,
As we all keep on spinning,
What you see as the beginning,
Is undoubtedly, sadly, the end.

Yes, I know, Earth is round, my friend,
But, please try (won’t you?) to comprehend,
As we all keep on spinning –
Here is where you start grinning –
The beginning’s what sprouts from the end!



Live for the Love of it,
The Happy Amateur
