Across the World

I wrote this poem because it means something to me

Across the World

We'll cross the oceans

And next the continents

Because I'll always adventure

In any weather

As long as I have you

 

Let's scale the Rockies

And Mt. McKinley

Sail all of the seven seas

And we'll like the sights we see

 

Through the Sahara

To the Aurora

The lights will dance

Above our heads

In the snow and sand we'll prance

 

Go into the city

Streetlights so pretty

As they illuminate the dark

In Grand Central Park

 

Then we'll sleep in a taxi

Driving to Sydney

Where we'll pet koala bears

And ignore the blatant stares

As we sneak one out

Of the zoo with care

 

Off to the Amazon

Where we'll have lots of fun

Tangled in mosquito nets

That leopard may be a threat

 

And before we go home

We'll have one last show

Climbing through the snow

Up to Mt. Everest

 

Because we know we must be

The best of the very best

I'd love to give you advice, but I'm not the best with poetry. haha :) I do know, though, that I enjoyed this and found it to be an amazing poem!

i don't have any advice i try to keep from influencing other writers and let them develop their own way of writing as for the poem itself it was wonderful:)

in this line

Because we know we must be
The best of the very best

shows your positivism in life.
i dont have any suggestion, but if you feel like what your heart and mind says.. the same..that its just right..then it is...
just follow your emotion it will guide you..
good job..

It can not get any better than this. This is to me a perfect poem. It took me on a jorney to places I have never seen. You brought your readers into your words that to me is pefessional at work. Great job on this one this is a winner for me. I dont know if this is a song or a poem. To me it is a poem and a very good one. This is my favorite out of all the ones I have read.
