The 5 SENSES OF LIFE

Life is a gift, hold it tightly,
Stroke it, caress it, be tender towards it.

Life is a gift, to be unpacked, explored,
Fragrant aromas enticing you forward.

Life is a gift, changing horizons,
A panorama of living colour.

Life is a gift to be devoured and savoured,
Eclectic fruits, from every nation.

Life is a gift, a multitude of sounds,
The heartbeat of heaven all around.

Live life to the full, give it away,
Gifts from the heart, every day.

It’s time to live again.

Running Away

Better off alone? where would you go?
On your own, where would you hide?
Isolation!!…so attractive?
The emptiness of a numbing existence.
For wherever you go, you are never alone,
Battle scars, forever companions.
Always screaming, removing peace,
Alone with self, will it bring relief?

Another path?
A frightening choice,
Allowing others to hear your voice.
Your crying heart, release the fear,
The love of friends surrounding, near.
You are much loved, a special child,
Loving arms, to hold you tight.
The most difficult path up ahead,
To face the pain with caring friends.

It’s time to live again
