Lessons from Life

Lessons from Life

Bring out the Emotion

With Joy and Tears

For without it we do not have the Human Condition

Take out the Trash

For with it we reek of Decay and Rot

And without it we smell of roses and lavender

Throw out all Bad Habits

And live life free of Guilt and Shame

Because life goes on with or without

Bring on the Troubles

For we need to see the Thorns

In Hiding or Secret the Thorns can Deflate

Take on the Challenges

For life to be fulfilled

We need to be reminded that life is worthwhile

Throw caution to the wind

And live every day like it is your last

But plan ahead for a rainy season

Bring the good times to the present

As the present is the only time we have

The future is unpredictable and the past is history

Take up the offer of someone you love

And watch the perks unfold

Just like a daily joyride

Throw out bad memories from your heart

And watch as the day sparkles

For good times are worth remembering

Many may scoff, jibe and ridicule

But if your heart can forgive

And your mind can absorb and release

Then no matter the issues

Survival is individual and lasting

None can point

And none can pinpoint

For it is in ourselves only

To make someone feel special

And loved

A feeling that is as powerful as the sunlight on our face

And the rain on our back.

Elixir

Elixir

Let’s blend together on a focal point of admiration

Your bubbling enthusiasm and bubbly nature

Can provide an invisible but detectable pleasantness

Your lissome and lithe murmuring can provide deep affection

And be the panacea.

I need a talisman

For a summery and sumptuous existence

And an umbrella for the woebegone days

For even in vestigial amounts

Your love can be the panacea.

Even a ripple has an effect on the banks of a river

And provide a scintilla of longing

To a redolent future

Serendipity is waiting everywhere

And is the answer or panacea.

There is a wherewithal

For in the waving and inclination

A quintessential idea can be born

And be the incipient to a cozy nook

And provide a panacea.

We can have an opulent love

This can be evocative and pleasant

And the glamour can cause us to gambol

And imbue an epiphany

The panacea is staring us in the face.

Today we may be demure

And we may need a bungalow in a bucolic site

Because love can be the solution

To a flowering and blooming life

With gossamer and halcyon days.

Let it Begin.
