Great Expectations Poem by Frederick Nellist

Great Expectations



When the future's more clearly defined
When my many wounds have become scars
When my intentions are no longer tried
When blind eyes look up at the stars.

That will be before my youth long past
That will be when I will participate
That's when I discover if the die is cast
That's when I learn if it's all too late.

Now it's the time for theories to prove
Now I must identify the link in the chain
Now is my chance for my mind to sooth
Now make certain all the ghosts are laid.

Soon I may see what is way out of sight
Soon I may have many grand tales to tell
Soon I will discover if my way was right
Soon I will find fate be it heaven or hell.
