Moving, not thinking

May 10, 2023
By Anonymous

Life is a river, don’t just float

Paddle hard, and stay afloat.

Plant your seeds, and let them grow,

Watch them bloom, and let them show


Be bold, be brave, take the lead,

Don’t just follow, plant your seed

The world is your canvas, go paint your

Art,

Be the one, and let your soul depart.


Don’t be a passenger, be the driver,

Take control, and be a survivor.

Life is a journey, don’t just sit and stare,

Take the wheel and go anywhere.

I am a 12 grade student at Decatur Highschool, I wrote this poem because I wanna inspire the others around me that are going through any regrets, self doubts, negativity energy around them. Inspire them to take the stand, lead their way through the challenge and overcome anything in their way.
