Think                  and
                 just                   be                            
                   for                at             
                     a             one
                      mo.  with
                        that self       
                         in   not
                     awe  yet
                 of           known
.             all                 to                 
          those                  our                
       things                     world
           
      
      Act                           real 
        like                        time                      
          you                  but
            have            now                            
               no         your
                 last  chance
                  don’t wait
               joy         take                 
           might           that
        never                open
    come                      green                                      
again                            path

 
 Look                           that
    round                   wondrous
      while                 road
       you                on
          walk         earth        
              its  how        
              we grow                      
           to      love
        live          deep   
     and              down
  breathe            inside   
 the                        us

Uniquely different. Yes, sometimes we need to take that grassy way and not the regular path to see what down that grassy way might be. Creative shape as well. Thanks for sharing it with us and for dropping by my page. Sara K
