Hi, folks I posted this some time ago....no one responded, so I checked it out....not there (if it shows up twice I apologise)

My lot in life

in my allotted span

is to do what I can,

to be what I am.

I am the sum of all my parts.

Heart, mind and soul.

My role?

My ultimate goal?

Simply to seize the day

Throw nothing away.

To enjoy my slotted span.

To prolong

for as long as I can

this life, in all its majesty.

No travesty, pure rhapsody.

Clasping me,

supporting me

through the highs and lows.

God alone knows

where everything goes.

Tomorrow may bring sorrow,

but, I know that joy

will follow.

Diurnal and eternal

Light and darkness,

darkness and light.

My place in the scheme of things?

To soar with golden wings,

to savour what life brings.....

Is this why my heart sings?

(I like these hydropro things.........not part of rhyme, just a comment!)

    I give you this present.

    It did not cost me anything.

    Hold it feel it caress it.

    When you have opened it and find you do not want it.

    Do not throw it away.

    Put it in a cupboard for one day you may find you will need it.

    The present is my Heart

    Hope you like this one too

  4. Carpe diem indeed.  Nice to try other forms isn't it?

    Listen to her throw

    Down the sound

    Life going round

    Straight to the heart

    The place to start

    Just stay off the dark

    Days in the park

    Blue bird that brings

    G Jill her wings

    So she can fly

  10. Jill, you never cease to amaze me.  As Elaine pointed out, your versatility and creativity is just astounding.   Your poetry is never dull.

    Excellent job...lots of fun.

  11. You may have given a reason for living - "to do what I can, to be what I am".  How often one searches - for the ultimate reason for their life - when the answer may be a simple statement - to be what I am.  Thank you, Granny ♥
