Do Not Stow Your Life Away

Do Not Stow Your Life Away


Do not stow your life away
Or stray in some godforsaken play
Nothing worth having is just given away
Do not look the other way

Embrace with open heart
What now seems the hardest part
And should you get carried away
Or even lost in any way

A nudge, a touch I will apply
Night and day on me you can rely
For it is you, my child,
Who forges firm untied

This precious life

I've had this little poem sitting there for days, waiting to be released but I was missing one word: 'untied'. It finally came yesterday. It is so hard to let go . . .

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 4/7/2017 7:04:00 AM - An uplifting and lovely poem, never forget to live ... enjoy the day ... no one knows what tomorrow will bring, Anne-Marie :) - Happy weekend :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Anne-Marie Coreggia Date: 4/7/2017 10:30:00 AM Thank you so much for this lovely review. I was trying to give my kids some encouraging words; they are now young adults and have a lot of important decisions to make, and, as a parent, it is sometimes hard to be supportive without interfering with their lives.
