Poetry

This Is Your Life

Waiting for tomorrow
Waiting for bigger
Waiting for better
Waiting for health
Waiting for wealth
In the frantic rush
You’re missing today
In the future dreams
You’re missing today
In the when this happens
You’re missing today
This is your life
As it is today
Embrace it now
Embrace it as is
Embrace this day
Before there isn’t another

Yes! Waiting isn’t always necessary. I feel like we are all in the waiting room like stated in the Dr. Seuss book, Oh the Places You’ll Go! If you don’t know the reference I could share my poem about it. 🙂

  Thanks Carly. Yes, it is like the waiting room, but feel free to share your poem about it.
