-It’s Your Turn-Prose Poem

It’s your turn!

In childhood, we dream we’ll be great one day.

Nothing takes hope from us. We send fears away.

In adolescence, life inflicts doubts.

But we still don’t back out.

In adulthood, we put the brakes on.

We pass over opportunities thereupon.

In old age, we look back and regret.

It wasn’t so bad as it seemed. Hindsight gives us that.

Yet, ask yourself right now. How late is late indeed?

Rewrite your story and take the lead.

Leave the past behind and build a new one.

Soon you’ll be glad you let it go and won.

 No ifs or buts this time. Why?

Because now it’s your turn.
