A Poem by Julie McCarthy (juliespenhere)

Draw a line in the sand
Jump over it
I said

Like a kid
I add

No there was never any
Meaning deep or spiritual
In this poem
I just tricked you

Did you jump the line
Have fun
Now skip over it
Now go back and forwards
Hopping
Fall down laugh
Feel the sand
See the ocean

Now that’s spiritual
I won
I wrote your experience

No you didn’t !
I hear you say

I know
I’m just here writing this
And you the one having all the fun 🤩
That ain’t fair I �" thought

So really

You win !


Well we both win
I wrote the stuff

You read it

Now not let’s make this a competition
We both agree

Life is one big competition
You say
Shaking your sand out

Well I get the coffee first
I’m closer to a kitchen

Nah
You say

Who cares
Walking off into the
Wet shoreline
Sipping your gym water bottle

Who won

No one says God
You are immature children
Pretending to be adults

Grow up

No God that’s too boring
I say sipping my coffee
Looking at your sunrise
ThAnkyou God I 🙏 pray aloud
A beautiful one today

He smiles appreciatively

Knowing my inner simple
Spiritual self
Is like jumping a line
In the sand at sunrise

I have to find that one simple deep
Place every day
If only over a coffee
While you jump
Like a kid
Eating sand

We all do it differently

Life

Some are doers
Who run and jump
And race through life
And
Some are thinkers
Who sit sip write and watch

Whatever makes ya happy

I agree dear Julie.
Some are doers
"Who run and jump
And race through life
And
Some are thinkers
Who sit sip write and watch"
I was both. Now I drink coffee and write. Thank you dear friend for sharing the outstanding poetry.

You are welcome dear Julie.
Some are doers
Who run and jump
And race through life
And
Some are thinkers
Who sit sip write and watch

Life is ours to be what we make of it. We all can enjoy life in our own way, see life differently and still fall in love with it.

This poem is so feel good and made me smile and feel happy about living.
