Sauntering Along Poem by Dauntless Aberrants

Sauntering Along

Rating: 5.0


I saunter.
The same long road,
Tarred or otherwise.

I saunter.
Passers’ by, the same,
Only the faces and their second skins change.

I saunter.
The start and the finish, the same
Only the routes change.

I saunter.
The aim is the same,
Only the bout changes – sometimes long, otherwise short.

I saunter.
The time is the same.
Only the darkness varies – Sometimes dark, otherwise darker.

I saunter.
The thoughts aren’t the same.
The frequency, the amplitude, the intensity, all change.

That is why, I saunter.

'I saunter. The thoughts aren’t the same. The frequency, the amplitude, the intensity, all change.' The aim is the same, but the thoughts aren't the same! Yes, there is no specific pattern for our thoughts and they keep changing! Your debut appearance on poem hunter with the first post itself is promising
