What Life Means To Me

What Life Means To Me Life is a gift Life is a maze constantly evolving We change our paths solving routes in our life With the good and the bad Life is a beautiful open flower with sweet perfume Attracting nature’s guest to admire our beauty Then they smile and fade away Life is going to bed at night with prayers on my lips Waking up in the morning Being alive and part of the universe Smelling the clean fresh air and feeling the soil under my bare feet Filling my heart with the stars and using my days wisely Life is putting the past in the past and walking forward into the future With my head up high with dignity Life is achieving my most audacious dreams Life is a burning candle that burns warm and bright With a whisper of warm breath Extinguishes one day What Life Means To Me Life is a gift 9/27/2015

Love is to be united with the creator and its creation in a harmonious, unassuming way as to keep the whole and its parts intact! A very beautiful and romantic idea of life that the Lord would certainly approve, dear Eve!
