Our Rhythm of Life

The beat within our life spins fast
from when we're born, the dye is cast
its axis rests upon our past.
To us this is a given
we climb aboard its rhythm.

The music that we like we choose
as we put on our dancing shoes
but, sometimes choice is how we lose.
Opening minds is all it takes
learning them corrects mistakes.

When set upon a different style
we're open to be versatile
new rhythmic music can compile.
Our world will keep on turning
our fires keep on burning.

We all should move toward the light
together, we can make it right
then dance away both day and night.
Sway in perfect symmetry
rhythmic perfect imagery.

The quest is this, we all should know
when life becomes to fast, we slow
for we can all control its flow.
Rhythmic change in ev'ry way
improves our lives ev'ry day.

 Our rhythm of Life.
