Winning Poem
My Bucket List
Submitted by Clentin
I fell in love with a heart so true,
I cherish moments, both old and new.
I learned from failures of the past
I pray these actions will always last
My bucket list as a young man, so vast,
A journey of self-discovery, meant to last.
I chased my dreams with passion and might,
In the pursuit of life, to find the light.
Now that life is closer to the end
My bucket list begins to bend
A list once so big and wide
Now is small but full of pride
I no longer wish for cars or money
I seek love and comfort and a bit of honey
I want to see my family live with success
Free of illness free of stress

My bucket list
Was basically winning the lottery
Very ambitious
Now that I'm older, I pray for more simpler things
I pray I can pay a bill, on time
I pray, God will give me grace
I pray for Peace
.
Your poem reminded me of my youth
It's quite veritable!
Well done
