World Worries

A poem about the things in life that make us worry.

By Maddy NewtPublished 4 years ago • 1 min read

Wasted water, winter woes,

worn wallets, worthless warrants.

While we wake, work, worship, wake,

we worry, wondering

which way we will wander.

Withered, witless, weary?

Weightless, wise, whole?

We walk whatever way works,

wishing.
