Pause, Never Move Too Quickly, or Else

Pause,

then move

freely in life.

–

Never,

let past

transgressions hamper you.

–

Move,

gently forward,

With positive intentions.

–

Too

many people

over complicate life.

–

Quickly,

they realize

and slow down.

–

Or

they’ll miss 

many great things.

–

Else,

they’ll have

many regrets, later…

Unconditional Happiness

Don’t get even, live your life

Past is a closed square 

Whether ex husband or wife

No need to go there.

–

Feel the peace of the present

Enjoy all that’s now

Looking back causes resent

Make today your vow.

–

Go outside, start a nice walk

Stretch your arms and legs

Stop negative talk

Its depression begs.

–

Notice the flowers and trees

Beauty everywhere

Feel a warm spring breeze 

Nothing else compares.

–

Remember you are alive 

As air fills your lungs

With nothing contrived

Sweetest songs are sung.

–

So take pause, don’t overthink

Feel your happiness 

Life passes, don’t overthink

Moments don’t digress….

Ever Present

When does today become yesterday

When does present become the past

It must be before midnight, I dare say 

Certainly, its finality, will find you fast. 

–

So cherish each moment 

Before they are all gone

Lest you’ll suffer lament

But we must carry on…

Satisfaction is Now

Do today what want to tomorrow 

Your regret is comfortless sorrow.

–

Do what you will as you might

Live each day for your delight.

–

Take chances turn off your phone

Venture out to nature on your own.

–

Get off the grid and disconnect

Then your peace will circumvent.

–

All that has gone and all that remains

Needn’t cause you endless pain.

–

Live in the now and live in today

Who gives a care about yesterday.

–

Tomorrow’s not promised so lower your eyes

Look at this moment and claim the prize.

–

As the pain contorted, drops from your face

And you’re filled with peace, gratitude, grace.

–

I know your life’s lessons have been hard

But ease up on yourself in that regard.

–

The past mistakes shouldn’t be dire

If you deny this then you are a liar.

–

Overcome all the obstacles placed

And watch as frustration’s erased.

–

You’re better now, than ever before 

And you’re feeling happiness more.

–

So, do remember that you did survive 

Reap the rewards of your lessons, alive…

Life is Here, Now, so Live It!!

Life is here

Much to live

You’ve got time

Much to give.

–

Don’t think hard

Doesn’t work

Stressing self,

Muscles, jerk.

–

Just relax

And stretch out

No troubles,

You’re without.

–

Just listen

To a song

With its notes

Am I wrong?

–

All your tunes

Define you

Passions and,

What you do.

–

Feel the breeze

On your face

And its soft

Warm embrace.

–

Just let time

Fall away

Enjoy life

In this day.

–

Remember,

It’s so short

And precious

I report.

–

Living, now

Is the best

Take your time

Pass the test.

–

No regrets

Only ease

With grace and,

Inner peace…
