Learn To Dance Or Not


There are few consistencies
in life, one we can count on is
the rising and setting of the sun,
even the blossom on the vine may
come forth before their time, upsetting
the balance in their nature.


As we beings with superior
knowledge go through our life's
coarse we are unable to predict
with any amount of accuracy in
which way to walk, yet we only
live to succeed in our visions of life
and to gain the many things we
perceive we cannot live without.


Lilly's toil and spin about
with only the garment God
gave them, how do we as humans
come to need so much and care
or value life so little.

By the way
there is another constancy and that
is death, may we learn to dance
before it is to late.


By, Cerenity

Xeonox and Serenity

Thank you both so much for your kind replys, I know this is a repost but  I am having such a brain dead time lately with my writting, flat liner.

Love,  Cerenity

May I have this dance?  Wonderful words of inspiration.  We should make the most of each day and you have given us a sweet reminder of that.
