The Love of Life

Written 21 December 1990

Have you ever felt a rose petal?

I have felt

Have you ever tasted a tear?

I have tasted

Have you ever smelled a spring rain?

I have smelled

Have you ever heard a distant train on a long, hot summer’s night?

I have heard

Have you ever seen the colors that play with the melting sun at dusk?

I have seen

This is what life is about

And this alone makes life worth living
