Wise Old Senile-anelle (Villanelle poetry style) - read in "you young whippersnappers" voice

in #poetry8 years ago (edited)

I lost my head some time ago.
I've been wanderin' ever since.
Life is better when taken slow.

It seems useless trying to know
the meaning behind these events.
I lost my head some time ago.

Who can guess what time to sow?
when planting shall commence?
Life is better when taken slow.

Politics are now at an all time low.
Kiss a frog and make him prince.
I lost my head some time ago.

Watched a daredevil at a show.
Crazy young'ns make me wince.
Life is better when taken slow.

Make wise decisions as you grow.
But decide and get off the fence!
I may've lost my head some time ago,
Still, life is better when taken slow.
