Lif'e Game

Pass the red ball around
Don’t let it hit the ground
Hold it too long and you’re bound
To break the rhyme and take the blame
For a mistake you made
While playing life’s game.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
