Awareness, Poetry, prompts

Reena is the host of Reena’s Xploration Challenge

Welcome to the third century of RXC!

PROMPT #201

Just a sentence. I won’t say anything more.

A stranger in a very strange land..

There is no restriction on length or format of the piece. There is no last date either, unless you wish to be featured in the Weekly Wrap.

➰➰➰

I am A stranger in a very strange land

Lost without a map to guide

There are no signposts no markers

I have to go the wrong way many a times

To find where I really want to go

Making several mistakes before I discover

The right way to do what I want to do

Life is a strange land and I am a stranger

Only by living it that I learn how to

And by that time I am nearing the end



Of this journey, still discovering, still learning

➰➰➰

I am writing to express my opinion, share my experiences and to maybe provide some insight. My blog is addressing women at 50 ( but men are welcome to read my posts) ,their issues and the questions that come up at this stage in life. I don’t aim to teach, but to learn together.

  9. A wonderful poem. “Only by living it that I learn how to and by that time I am nearing the end”- This line, for reasons unknown, reminds me of a quote “Life’s biggest tragedy is that we become old too soon and wise too late.”
    You said it so well in a way that speaks to all of us 😊👌
