Seize the Day

Seize the Day

A Poem by Michael Alexander
"

Describing the Importance of living in the moment.

"

Escape from the dark

Let the sun shine through

These words you must hark

Start each day anew

 

You’re one heart beat away

Can’t determine what’s next

Go  admire this day

You’re quite far from hexed

 

It can start with a smile

Perhaps just a grin

Give it awhile

Allow light to come in.  ..

 

Beauty’s all around us

Splendor it’s true

See the clouds of cirrus

In the skies that are blue

 

Embrace all the colors

Even all the smells

handshakes from others

Ringing of church bells.

 

There are people who care

You know who they are

Let go of despair

Love carries you far.

I loved this, it flows wonderfully and gives a great message to the readers. I even smiled "it can start with a smile, perhaps just a grin" :)
