Given

In this life we are given, One chance to do what’s right, To find what is ours and, Our place in this big world, We must search for, Our friends, Our family, The one who will love us, Unconditionally, Plan for things, And enjoy the unexpected plans, That god gives us, Live the life that is planned for us, With no expectations from anyone, Don’t take too much, And give a lot, And go on living the life that was given to us.

Not expecting "too much" while giving "a lot" are good words by which we should live, Coreena. And I do believe God has a plan for each of us, though sometimes the events that transpire seem unexpected. You bring a fresh, new voice to Poetry Soup. Welcome to the family. Wishing you a very happy holiday season, Carolyn

We never can know what life might give us, we can know who gives life. Great thoughts put to pen in this one. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
