NaPoWriMo Day 25 –poetic prompt

Day 25


Rage, rage against the dying of the light
Experience the journey – simply not a fight

May 31, 2011
Refracting rainbow's colours arrange
Each person a prism life souls exchange
Challenge us, prompt us, lead us to life
Our soul's point of view cuts like a knife
There are schisms between us unembraced
Decades pass still they're unerased
Is it the destination that really truly matters
Or the journey along as friend and foe scatters?
Embrace all you endure for they are only lessons
'Tis true I can share all my old confessions
We must keep moving forward despite aches and pains
As wisdom accrues like flying paper planes

Prompt


I've always fought against this poem by Dylan Thomas, despite enjoying it!

Do not go gentle into that good night
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
