Life Is Short


Life Is Short
so why not
make it sweet also
It is fragile,
can be taken from
you in an instant.
Value it deeply,
don't take it for granted
because you never know
when it will be
exhausted, finished
Savor each moment
Count your Blessings
Enjoy all the fruits
that it has to offer
As long as you
have your health
you're ahead of the game
Be grateful for we
are only on this Earth
for a minuscule time

Health is Wealth, methinks too. Season's best, Frank.
