or chase new partners all non stop
Life can be greeting the morning light,
or dance in joy as the day turns to night
to chat with a friend for hours to go
to pick a wild flower - or just leave it to grow
Life is a sip of a scented tea
or a hint of a smell - of what used to be
to laugh so hard that the sky turns bright
or to miss her so much, that you cry every night
Life is a cookie, a hot yummie piece
and a hope that the good things will never cease
and oh we know - after rain comes sun
and to feel real life, put your shoes on and run
to a mountain top or the edge of the sea
to feel all alive, to feel not Me but We
Life is yours
love it
live it

DeleteDearest Eli,
ReplyDeleteLovely poet with a lot of life's wisdom interwoven in it.
Yes, life can be rough at times but we always have to 'shine' as a dear friend of mine used to call it; regardless the struggles we're facing.
There will always be calmer days, sunnier times and joys to live forward to!
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
