Between You And Me Poem by Jeff Hobbs

Christopher Robin always used to sit half way up the stairs
Looking up you can see where the big people live
Being busy and important and doing what big people do
Looking down you can see the toys and the games
Waiting for you to come down and play with them.
It is strange being half way between two worlds
Being between life and death, love and emptiness
Hope and routine
Sitting half way down the stairs wondering
Which way, is there choice, why?
