THE POSITIVE SIDE OF LIFE
Living on Earth is expensive,but it does include a free trip
around the sun every year.
How long a minute is
depends on what side of the
bathroom door you're on.
Birthdays are good for you;
the more you have,
the longer you live.
Happiness comes through doors you
didn't even know you left open.
Ever notice that the people who are late
are often much jollier
than the people who have to wait for them?
Most of us go to our grave
with our music still inside of us.
If Wal-Mart is lowering prices every day,
how come nothing is free yet?
You may be only one person in the world,
but you may also be the world to one person.
Some mistakes are too much fun
to only make once.
Don't cry because it's over;
smile because it happened.
We could learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp, some are pretty,
some are dull, some have weird names,
and all are different colors....but
they all exist very nicely in the same box.
A truly happy person is one who
can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

with our music still inside of us. quoted
The above is taken fro Oliver Wendel Holmes that goes:
"Alas for those who never sing but die with all their music inside them."
The Poet Ezra Pound put the same warning this way:
"Music rots when it gets too far from the dance."
Liked your poem, it is all basic but it is well put together; keep writing, you're getting better. %)
btw, this is the Oldest Blog, that I could find, that actually has an active profile...
