"Everyone of us live our life just once, if we are honest, to live once is enough." Greta Garbo, 1938 so live in tranquility for it is the place of imagination and reflection be you, be mellow, be calm be gentle, be respectful be pleasant listen find harmony contemplate the infinite the intricate and spiritual keep talking and life will be nothing keep quiet and life will be full in excess _________________________ October 13, 2022 Poetry/Free Verse/Living Just Once Copyright Protected, ID 10-1494-230-13 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Premiere contest, A Brian Strand Premiere Choice sponsor, Brian Strand, Judged 10/16/2022

Love the poem, Constance, especially the last two lines. As my dear mother used to say: Gershon, God gave you two ears and one mouth... Happy weekend! ~ Gershon

Gershon, thank you so much for the comment and compliment, my father had sayings too, that I actually understand now, one was "be quiet, never let your enemies what you really think", blessings Constance
