Carpe Diem

Carpe Diem

A Poem by Kathy Mc Cathy
"

Seize the moment , each and every day

"

Plucking the shiniest ripe cherry , of the big ‘ol tree 

Savoring each moment of its tangy taste with glee

That’s my pastime daydream with twisted turned story 


I stare at things without knowing I do , and think about something else 

Whether it's worry of doing something silly or the sudden joy of the ringin bells

All I do is think , all up inside my mind ,

That’s my living room , with plenty of space inside 


A wise man says “ Carpe Diem “ 

Seize the moment , each and every day 

Whether it's an opportunity unlooked , just enjoy the happiness at the end of the day 

Be in the moment , don’t wait for the shiniest cherry 

Just pluck the best one that’s all , Don’t wait for Christmas to be merry 


Just let your creative juices flow , Make the most your time 

Whether it's writing a poem like me or planning the perfect crime

Living in the moment is seizing the day. It's the best way to live, except most of us don't. Too many look to the past and some are looking way ahead to the future. A meaningful write Kathy, well done.

You are welcome Kathy:) )
Seizing the day, preferably the moment, is the most important thing we can do, for life exists only in the present moment, past and future being but phantoms. As the poet puts it "Don't wait for Christmas to be merry." Properly scrutinized, there is more in the now than we could ever suspect.

I might just give up writing poetry, and start planning that crime...
I might be doing time for writing bad poetry anyway....might as well rob a bank...or maybe

I have already committed the perfect crime...killing a poem with impunity.
