Live and Learn

Poetry

I speak to you now,

Of an age yet to come,

When people will realize,

What was always known to some,

That life is priceless,

We all make mistakes,

We will never know,

How much courage it takes,

To live our life,

To it's fullest extent,

And help other people,

For that's why we were sent,

We must all leave behind,

Everything that we know,

And continue ahead,

To the place that we go,

We may not know it right now,

But we know in our hearts,

That what we do today,

Will help us to start,

Learning our lessons,

And lending a hand,

And help us to know,

That we are never in command,

Some people are foolish,

And they never learn,

That feelings are important,

And they will never earn,

The respect of others,

What an important thing,

To be trusted by friends,

And we will begin to sing,

We will begin to love,

Like never before,

And something amazing will happen,

We will start to want more,

A new world will be seen,

And precious time spent,

But life is a gift,

It's Heaven sent,

Sometimes we don't remeber,

That love is the key,

We have to trust,

In order to succeed,

And never forget,

Who is really in control,

Keep trusting in him,

And you will gain a new soul,

Keep living each day,

With faith and with trust,

With love and compassion,

But never with lust,

To live and learn,

To trust and obey,

Always remember,

That is the way.
