The Quality of Life

Quality of Life is talked about
All around society, in or out.
Whether a long or a short life
It's to be peaceful without strife!
Not the quantity, no one knows,
The Spirit is like a wind that blows.
How and why we live will count
So I can smile, not pout,
Expecting a peace and happiness
that comes from gratefulness
In me and to those around
Wherever love is found.

Life is like fun-filled R.A.C.E.S.,
Not against others to save faces.
But like the letters remind me
It's simply important to be
In good Relationships, Attitudes,
Clothes, Eating and Sleeping virtues
So keep the quality spiritually,
Of the blessings make a tally.
It's up to us to choose
Not external things like booze,
Drugs, health, money or friends.
It's only Jesus' Love that never ends!
