Goals: A Poem
Goals, goals, goals,
Checking off to-do lists before you age,
Like an actor before he takes his last bow,
Attempting to thrill before exiting the stage,
Success before a sense of accomplishment,
Trophies, ribbons, and applause,
Running races to get ahead,
Working hard without a pause,
Goals, goals, goals,
Are okay, but maybe life isn't a to-do list,
Maybe there's more to living,
Like love, peace, and happiness.
