"Life Is Precious"... a Poem

Life is so precious,

And each day is a gift.

So enjoy every minute,

As it were your last to live.

Cherish your loved ones,

Hug them tight,

Share with them your heart,

And your time.

Nothing is forever,

And life goes so fast,

Each minute that passes,

Is one you can’t get back.

When troubles arrive,

And knock you off your feet,

Stand up and smile,

And remember life is too sweet.

Every morning when you wake,

Decide right from the start,

That “Today will be a good day”

And let it all in with an open heart.
