So Much More In Life To Love

To see the beauty of a new sunrise,
feel the kiss of salt air on our cheeks.
Hear the laughter of children at play
and see fresh snow on mountain peaks.
We must do all we can to survive,
find our inner strength to rise above,
the adversities placed in our way.
For there is so much more, of life to love.

There awaits for us, Springs vibrant blooms,
the smell of new mown hay in the field.
The joy of watching kittens tumble,
reaping the rewards of what a garden yields.
Do not forget, we have each other,
stronger together, when push comes to shove.
Hand in hand, we will see this through.
For there is so much more, of life to love.
