As humans we have a few bad habits..
We tend to get in our own way
Of having a life of fun and play
The thoughts we have in our head..
To which we fall prey..
Like a dreary cloud filled day!
We hand over the present..of the present..
To yesterday!
What a waste of a life..
To choose the book that’s already been written
Read, and on display!
Rather than this moment we are in..so a lively..so gay
We rescind our power…
We hope and pray
That just for a moment…we can put our pain to lay
We allow the culture..and those around us to sway…
Our deep sense of self
And our profound sense of wonder…
We tend to downplay
From our hearts we do stray
It’s all definitely not a ok!
Maybe its time to disobey..
All the rules that falsely convey
The perfect life you could have-the cliche..
Success isn’t indulging in one more buffet
Or owning one more ski chalet!
Or writing another award winning essay!
Let’s not keep our joy at bay.
Let’s not our fun delay.
Maybe it’s time to hire a DJ!
Have a second or third entree!
Try a new recipe for a soufflé
There’s a meaningful message to relay
We don’t have to wait until the month of May..
Or the next Birthday!
No more eating dinner on a TV tray
Let’s not our sense of wonder dissipate, disappear or decay!
A full life awaits you…
A new foray!
How about allowing love, and levity to belay..
Your spirits..
Even on your worst day
We don’t need to wait till we are old and grey
To have a great day!
Slay!
