Race to utopia


The race of races
should be delayed
at least a century or so
or until we find
that finish line,
a place where nobody knows.
 

then the race will be
to that unknown land
in hope that the winner
cares much for man
than his predecessors
have in the past,
 

and live a life so free
no prejudice in thee
the finish line for me
will be peace at last.

I am from Miami, Florida and have written poems throughout my life. Some more prolific than others. I know this site is for young poets and writers, but i am young at heart with a little more life experiences. Since we all have been locked up in our own induced prison for awhile, i thought it was about time, since i have so much of it now, to gather all my writings and share my life with you all. Topics that i cover will be, "Mother Nature" "life" "Friendships" "Love" and "Some stories and Thoughts." I have loved art all my life, especially photography and graphic art (my profession, love designing logos and studied at the art institute of Ft. Lauderdale) and ceramics. I wrestled at light weight in high school and won a national award for one of my ceramic vases. I have gone through many rough waters in my life, which one of us hasn't,? which you will read when i post them. I fantasy roll play, play card games especially Poker, and i like board games. You are welcome to follow me on Facebook if you are so inclined to snoop through my pictures and my life. https://www.facebook.com/mitchell.abrahams.77 or for my poetry page "Me Myself & i" fb.me/mrapook I also belong the the "AllPoetry.com" website. Hope you enjoy my poems
