Excite My Soul

I scour the sky's for signs Talking to the constellations. Walking home alone With an array of destinations. I need "titillation" An excitement to take over. Do I overlook the smallest things. Or rather see a four leaf clover? Devour life like a succulent peach Don't dilly dally on the bad Take time to inhale the sun as well as rain. Like that bloke I met I last week Hours I didn't even notice Next morning I passed him trotting down the street Recalling memories of my lost dog Otis. Live in the present, not past or tomorrow. Breathe in the hindsight that you missed. As far as I am concerned We should have immediately got hitched
