Choice Decorates Life
Is time a disposable commodity?
It can be bought and sold for a day’s work.
It can be wasted on things with no perk.
That we value it is no oddity.
As time passes, understanding is found.
No experience can be removed.
So, make well of each day; it is behooved.
Around the clock, choices abound.
Wisdom in wanting leads to success.
Focusing on goals directs one way.
Providing purpose to every day.
It is not easy, I must confess.
Embrace the commodity without strife.
Time with love shared is time well spent.
When seeking one's paths, man must not relent.
Remember that choices decorate life.
