Lust for life!

Part the curtains hung.

Let its blinding, bittersweet light -

drip from your tongue.

Open your eyes to all

of life’s beauty.

Forget not to make

your own life extraordinary.

From the moment we come crying

to the moment we leave dying -

We will forever be remembered

by what’s in between.

Life’s powerful poetry reads on,

contribute your verse

or be remembered for nothing…
