Gaming

Gaming online is a challenge of will.
Playing the match has a great thrill.
Fighting for points with every kill.
Completing your tasks with only your skill.
Running the ranks, the battles down hill.
Maxing the charts, king of the hill.
Being the best is a challenge of will.

Age

As a child it is easy to find the time to run and play, but as we age it seems as though those times they go away. To see the moon and stars above shining in the night. Or watch a bird learn to spread it's wings and fly. As we grow we come to know the things we didn't see.(Mark Moore)

The poem "As a child" by Mark Moore is about how when you are young things seem easy. But as you age you find things are harder to do. Life is progressively harder on you as you age but some things can be better.

When we all are young things seem easy and the world is a fun place were you get every thing you want.  Small kids like my cousin make friends easily with little effort. She knows nearly everyone in the city of Brandenburg even people my aunt and uncle don't know. They always say that "She never meets a stranger" like most kids. If you have ever seen a little kid in a room full of people then you know this very well. Even after a long and trying day kids get to go home to a warm and loving home where things seem to melt away.

As we age things seem to be more difficult than they were before. The line from the poem that shows this best is "But as we age it seems as though those times they go away". What he is saying is that as we get older things like playing with our friend seem to be put in the back seat of our lives. We no longer have the time to do things we love but are forced to do things for our future. 

After a certain point in our live we age enough to know the thing our parents knew. The line from  the poem that puts this best is " As we grow we come to know the things we didn't see". He is trying to say that when we get older we learn why we couldn't stay up late or buy that knew toy. Our parents always knew things we didn't and they kept it that way to help us in the future.

The finial stage of life is after all the stress of day to day life is over and we grow old to the days where we can relax. Things seem easy again like before. My mom always says "life comes full circle, you start in diapers and end in them". This is the same for everyone even you and me.
