BREATHE IN LIFE

Some people work their life away
and they never have a kind word to say

They have their nose to the grindstone
and all they do is grumble and groan

I wish I could help them feel and see
Through my eyes all the wonders in life that are free

Like watching a squirrel running and playing in a tree
Or the sound of a small child laughing with such glee

It is these small moments in life
that will cleanse your soul of all its strife

So please breathe in the joys of life
and let go of all your strife

Hi Lucy


I really think the brains of most people who write poetry are hard wired to appreciate the more beautiful aspects of nature. Whilst not all hard workers are grumblers, your point is very well made in this piquant poem.


Best wishes
