Life And Bus Drivers Poem by Darwin Henry Beuning

Life And Bus Drivers

Rating: 5.0


Life is like
Being a bus driver

You have a designated route
with many stops along the way

You can't get ahead
But, you can get behind

Faces come and faces go
Some sad and some glad

When all is said
The final stop is being dead

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

Wow, many trips you have taken on the bus to work. Saved plenty of gas in the car there.. The final stop is death. Very true.

I have travelled on many buses, seen many bus drivers at work. Your analogy between life and bus drivers is striking. 'You can't get ahead/But, you can get behind'.

I caught the bus countless times in Auckland. The bus drivers were great.
