Cherish Your Life
Love life as much as it loves you.
Wind that cools as the sun beams to warm you.
Birds singing you a lullaby as you gently fall into a deep sleep.
And as winter turns into spring,
you soar like an eagle and catch a ledge
when you thought you were on the edge of despair.
Life is short.
Cherish it while you have it.
No matter what happens, do not throw it away.
A kingdom of gold lies in wait for those who manage to stay.
Others might long for the chance that you would toss away,
so cherish your life while you may!
