Florence Mcmillian Poet Narrative

The Enjoyment of Life

Dedication:  Thanks to all of my dear family and friends who share the joy of life with me!

The Enjoyment of Life

To find the enjoyment of life
For the moments we live
It matters not what we do
It is who we do it with

As we should find our joy
They say for every situation
Bad times can even feel good
Being with a special someone

We are filled with joy at birth
Spiritually given from above
Most folks forget it’s there
Looking elsewhere for love

We are also given friends
Along our allotted path
To remind us of the joy
Deep within we all hath

Cherish your special friends
Treasure moments you share
To find the enjoyment of life
A true friend will take you there

Let go of all your worries and smile
Then you’ll start to feel the joy within
Though you can always double the joy
When sharing it with a good friend

Florence McMillian (Flo)
