Live

Live like the flowers blooming on a tall tree.
Watch the as the sun climbs, marking each new day.
Live like the fish swimming in the open sea.
Be free in your travels; go every which way.
Live like a bug; like an ever-busy bee.
Work hard and be honest, despite what they say.
Live life to the fullest, be kind, and have fun,
For you never know when your life will be done.

Enjoy each day like you won’t get another.
Run through the fields, lie awake watching the stars.
Have fun with your friends, talk more with your mother.
Find out your interests, learn to play guitars.
Go dancing in the rain, love like no other.
Discover the world, even learn about Mars.
Spend all of your time with those closest to you;
Don’t let your good memories of them be few.
