To Have Life Within Your Reach

To have life within your reach... is to make the worst or best of choices; either crush them or make them flourish... Existence is more fragile than daises their delicate petals smell of sweet kisses; pluck them gently and blow them away... Butterflies are not bees that make honey, they pick up seeds and disperse them overfields and meadows: to give lovers a gift which is as incomparable as beauty... To have life within your reach... means you have every right to live it; and wouldn't anyone always cherish it? Springs aren't as wide as rivers; and shouldn't they flow merrily to the placid sea... carrying wild roses to catch someone's fancy? Nights of a soft and bright moon inspire a song of felicity; have you seen its cheerless face suddenly light up... when two lovers make wishes to surrender to fantasy? To have life within your reach... is not to lose those moments to time; realize how precious they are to a devoted mind! Copyright 2009 by Andrew Crisci
