LIFE´S TOO SHORT:


Life´s too short to waste, on so many mundane wrongs,

Too short to sweep a crumb, or dust a wayward mote,

Wouldn´t you rather dance a waltz, or sing lovely songs?

To lie on your back in oceans & upon waves, gently float?

 

Life´s too short to waste, on rant & blasphemous spate,

Far too short to be a bitch, or sew an old wasted stitch,

Wouldn´t you rather love than waste your time on hate?

To stir the magical cauldron & become a midnight witch?

 

Life´s too short to waste, stuffing mushrooms & stirring sludge,

Far too short for comparisons & spitting those nasty words,

Wouldn´t you rather be friends, than bearing a terrible grudge?

To fly away upon poetry, on the wings of airy sweet birds?

 

Life´s too short to waste, in every dull & imaginable way,

Far too short to run away, in boring impossible schemes,

Wouldn´t you rather go away & with your reality play?

To convert all your plans, into beautiful & plausible dreams?
