Favorite Quote:
&quot; God put us here on this carnival ride. We close our eyes never knowing where it will take us next. Babys are born and at the same time, someones taking their last breath. Its the Wheel Of The World. &quot;<br /> <br /> -Carrie Underwood &lt;3

Bumble Bees fumble
And Dragonfly’s die
Its all a game too see who can survive
Some may decide to stay
While others fade away
They disappear into nothing
quickly forgotten

Nice! I love your rhyming. The poem is short and it tells what it needs to tell: Survival. Also true story, metaphor for human existence. Metaphor for: "Life goes on."
