An old man with a dream <br />sits on top of a hill overlooking <br />a river <br /> <br />On that river is a young boy <br />sailing on a boat busily paddling himself <br />towards the shore of a faraway <br />town <br /> <br />And in that town is a butcher <br />displaying the head of a cow <br />to prove the kind of meat <br />that he is selling <br /> <br />They have never met <br />the hill, the river and the town <br /> <br />The sky who sees all these <br />knows what Life is all about <br />contemplation, excitement, <br />and work.<br /><br />RIC S. BASTASA<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/contemplation-excitement-and-work/
