the ride

Let birds vex and the squirrels strive for immortality.

The trick is to take
your eye off the ball - forget
and enjoy yourself.

When you realize
- ultimately, life's a
suicide mission.

Do the flowers fret
even as they bloom? Are swans
gracefully worried?  

Ignore that small voice
- enjoy life's pleasures, thrills,
and delight in love.

I do agree dear Anais.
"Ignore that small voice

The above lines. Words, to live by. I told my children. Travel, test life and have fun before you get old. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry. I did like this one.

I did a lot of traveling when I was young. Now, the old man is a home-body. You are welcome Anais.
