Life And Its Boxes! Poem by Daniel Hooks

Life And Its Boxes!

Rating: 5.0


They’ll put you into boxes when you’re living!
They’ll put you into a box when you’re dead!

We live in houses (brick boxes)
We drive cars (metal boxes)
We watch T.V (goggle boxes)
We sit by computers (electronic boxes)
Mailbox
Soap box
Matchbox
Free view box
Paint box
Tuck box
Snuff box
Witness box
Jury box
To name a few
And when you die and they put you in a wooden box (a coffin)
You’ll ask why did I let my life be put in a box?
Why did I think inside the box?
Why did I put other people in boxes?
It’s simple really
You felt safe in your BOX! ! ! ! ! ! !

Interesting viewpoint, Daniel. Never really thought of it that way, but I think you might be on to something. A 10 from me for originality. Shannon

nice words one going into the other coming back upon itself the heart yearning for wings though much much to large to spread in the coffin sailing away into your own heart a fine poem
