Boxes

We all live in boxes and that’s no surprise

But each time we move their girth seems to rise

Our needs are no greater but we thrive to take space

Bigger and bigger as if in a race

Even though our contentment refuses to glow

I think I should mention something we all know

That no matter how lofty our box grows in size

It still will not make us in anyway wise

For its just our folly to chase a false dream

A moment in madness within life’s regime

As we rush toward our end

Thought to Ponder – It is better to be 70 years young than 40 years old – Oliver Wendell Holmes
