Live Your Life

What has our world come to be?
Wildfires here and there almost everywhere
Pollution causing problems
Cars needing oil, oil needing money
The money that no one has
Stores closing down
Stock markets crashing
Divorced parents is normal
What has our world come to be?
Wars in other countries, life goes on
Fighting to see how many lives can be lost
Starvation in Africa, Obesity in America
Homeless people on the street
Drugs for kids, joints up the wall
Poor needs more that the Rich just ignore
Having babies at age 15
What has our world come to be?

Live life to it's fullest
Forget about yesterday and live for today
Pretend tomorrow will never come
Random acts of kindness leave love in the air
turn the music up a little louder
tell them you love them even when they already know
smile at passing people on the street
give a quarter to the homeless
give a sandwich to the poor
Make cookies for new neighbors
Make brownies for the old ones
Take your dog to the Nursing Home
Read a story to the kids
Stay in the shower a little longer
Give your pet an extra treat
Thank God for the life you have
Remembering someone has it worse than you

    I really loved this poem of yours... It shows a depth of soul that many of us don't seem to have... Powerfully written...
    Sometimes it seems like people would rather ignore all the trouble in the world and focus on their own materialistic issues... What is extremely sad... If every one of us did what you suggest, life in this world would become a lot better...
    Wonderful write...
    Merry Christmas

    *rock on* ;)
