POET’S CORNER: Stop and Go

Stop and Go

Stop signs galore

And the galaxy forever.

Limitations self-imposed,

Some for the good

And others to reconsider.

The end is in sight

Or is it the beginning?

Days may be endless

But life has an end.

The legacy we leave

Lies in between.

For some the hurdles are an end

For others they are the beginning.

— R. Demarest Duckworth, III
