To Live Would Be An Adventure

We spend our time sheltered, shaded by the Elm And too many of us let our lives pass us by With a ruthless rogue ruling the dreamboat helm Sparkling ship sailing across the summer sky We're like a swordfish swimming against the tide Should we turn against our dreams? This I can not abide Sharks nipping at our fragile fins, fatigue will overwhelm We harbor our feelings when we should let them fly Imagine ourselves in an eternal oasis, our heart's realm For to live would be the real adventure, not to die --------------------- RIP Robin Williams, Nanu Nanu
