Zest For Life

Even though my precious life
          is askew and imperfect, it is rife
   with beauty, love, never-say-die optimism,
       and it still shines as bright as a prism.

    Despite the ever-constant ups and downs
      In my face you see smiles, not frowns.
  I live life and revel in it with gleams of hope;
    beset with hardships, I find ways to cope!

  So swell, this life of mine; I feel the jive of it,
   the passion of it! My life's torch is always lit.
    I'll live this fun adventure once, only once;
   'tis a journey I won't squander like a dunce.
