What is life?
Life is the wonder of arising each morning
Looking out of the window to the world,
Knowing that this day will be wonderful
And will be different from any other day,
A day full of surprises to delight me.
What is life?
Life is walking a path with nature’s wonder
The glory of the array of colours around me,
The smells of its world beguiling my senses,
The symphony of music that is always there,
And makes me part of this wonderful world.
What is life?
Life is listening to music that has always been there,
Been there for me all my life on this world.
Taking me into the ether with its wonder and glory,
Bringing all emotions into my being,
Knowing that music will never stop in my life.
What is life?
Life is being so grateful for the love of my life
Now looking down upon me from above,
Knowing that the life we had together was so wonderful
And now knowing that I must not learn to live without her,
But to live with the love that she left behind for me.
That is life.

Good write Gold
Everyone was enjoying life in 1066 too, until I turned up. Doh!
Thanks Orchi.

Enjoy it to the full, Andy.
Redundant advice 'cos you already do.
Four perfectly balanced stanzas.
Thank you Dave much appreciated.
Andy
what an innately beautiful experience it is, to witness
someone proactively, trying to project meaningful positivity
out into this chaotically morose, world of ours..
once more, you've invigorated the start of my day
with your words alone Andy
and for that I humbly: thank you!
(sorry if the rainy weather
messes with your game-time my friend
but I for one, cherish the break from
the incessant humidity we've experienced lately)
either way, hope you have a great weekend
Than k you Mek. Yes the rain has been a blessing but it did not stop four of us fools from playing croquet.
