The Phases of Man

by fm wright

Hands and knees 
take a child to places 
which are in later years forgotten.

On two feet 
one travels to places 
that as babe were only imagined.

With a cane 
one's feet may be steadied 
while visiting places often trod.



3-6-9 Poem contest entry


This of course was taken from the riddle of the sphinx.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
