Taken Without Warning

Cherish those you truly love ~ for one day they'll be gone Heaven calls their name one morning taking them without a warning Even though you hope you'll spend a lifetime together Really listen to your heart ~ make every second count Instead of taking life for granted ~ grab it ~ love it ~ live it Sadly we don’t hear these words and one day we’ll regret it Hug and kiss spend time together ~ loving memories cherish forever Written 5th April 2021 Contest Name Writing Prompt - Cherish Sponsor Constance La France 2nd Place Contest ALL YOURS (APRIL 9) Sponsor Brian Strand FIRST PLACE

I read a story about a man who never cared much for his wife until she died. He spent his life mourning for her.
