Razor Sharp

Blue butterscotch moon shines on pale lemon merangue pie.
     Dry roasted peanuts in a jar, close to where I lie.
Red, green, and blue ice in a bottle, now I won't be dry.
     Flip flops walking on a sandy beach, makes me want to fly.
Need to swim at least 10 laps before noon at the "Y".
     Making love on roller coasters, gives me such a high.
So many things that I have done,  continue to make me cry.
     Anything you want to do, you only have to try.
Need to get things done you see, before I up and die!
     And when you read this little poem, you're going to make a sigh....
What are the real deep meanings here that will make you say "my, my"
     If you can grasp the meaning, know it's far beyond the sky!

I like this! It talks about simple things, yet it gives that message of "live life before it's too late" And making love on a roller coaster?? haha

I enjoyed this write Martin and I just want to say that it has been good for me to take time and enjoy living in the NOW. So just try to focus on the now and what you think is right in life, that is what you must grasp. Thank you for the words on my poetry by the way. :)
