Cherish

Cherish

A Poem by Fran Marie

` Cherish `
 

In solemn stillness I sit,on
the eve of new year,
reflecting quietly.
wondering, did I savor
every moment of this
past year?
and in all honesty, my answer
is no~

I could have made more
of each moment, making every minute
last, with more excitement,putting more
effort into the task at hand

perhaps I have wasted more time on
foolish things than I care to admit.
Time is valuable, and flees so fast

Now I wonder what I can change in the
new year approaching~ maybe savoring more,
of each precious moment,and to cherish
my love ones more~
yes, much more, for I have promises to keep,
not only to others, but to myself as well.

true words. This time of year we wax introspective and this piece speaks to that. Well done.

This is good and it is a time for reflection. I think most of us don't use our time as wisely as we should. I'm the worst when it comes to that. Thanks for this, it gives me something to think about. T

This is truth! There are moments in our lives that we could have spent more time on, while other moments didnt need our full attention.
I would like to think that Ill improve on this next year, but I dont know what the future has in store for me....we can only hope for the best...

I like the way you've looked into yourself and articulated what you see. If we all could grasp this concept of making ourselves better people, it would make the world a better place. It's the small things that make the biggest difference.

I agree, I look over so many important precious moments each year, and memories should be able to last because you enjoyed them, not because you went through them with out thinking, "wow, this is really great"

I think we can all see ourselves in this write. A great promise to try and keep and one I think we should all try our hands at. Great write.

Whew! This is so beautiful and so true! I feel the same way, honestly. There is so many moments I could've cherished but didn't. "Time is valuable, and flees so fast." What true words! Thank you for such an inspiring piece.
