EverlastingWaves

life
the unopened door
the old box of chrismas lights
an unused picture frame

happiness
the crunch of dry leaves
the gentle breeze
the green grass of spring

sadness
the withering plants
the unforgiving winter

oh, to watch the perfect sunset
across the sparkling lake
and have it be
every shade of life
every last one

oh, to lay back and watch the stars
on a clear night
and watch little holes appear

life is like lucky charms
everyone gets their bowls
with the cereal, and the marshmellows

the cerel is like average life
unless, of course,
you make them to be more

the marshmellows are like the good times
so good,

(From 'The Star Thrower' by Loren Eiseley. I liked the message and thought I'd make an adaptation.)

theres a poem in this lake
however it may hide
dive deep among it's waters
or simply look up at the sky

dip your fingers in the waters tears
watch the wind shake the trees
smile at the setting sun
and let yourself be free
