Gift

Dare just to be a bold true man,
Learn how to see beyond mere scan.


Act with bold tact with a kind heart,
Look beyond fact to embrace art.


Live well each day with jazz and fest,
Discern the way to love with zest.


To each a gift of love and joy,
Dare to uplift with cheery ploys.


Each journey sums an outcome brief,
Live your outcomes through joy and grief.


Breeze tints and shades in the fond light,
Love well your trade with passion bright.


Each man comes here with mission set,
Dare buzz or fear to hedge your bets.


Purge all worry and let faith bless,
Just live happy with more or less.


Too soon, too late your time runs out,
On that due date voice hazards shout!
