Love ,the Essence Of Life

[jimharmon]

This is the first poem I wrote when I was fifteen. It is my philosophy of life and will be read at my celebration of life when I die.

Love, The Essence of Life, a Philosophy

Life is of essence to me so dear.

Today I must live and tomorrow not fear.

For if I live my life with the fullest intent

Tomorrow will bring joy as a day well spent.

The quality of life to each individual

is what he makes it unless he dwindles

For the most out of life comes from time well spent

as the days on our calendar of life are extent.

If I live today like tomorrow won't come

and make out of life the most joyous of fun.

Then if I can live for just one more day,

the time that I've spent has not crept away.

So to my fellow philosophers who live to love life,

Let not it be said that I've loved once or twice,

For I'll live my life as I see fit,

and from the loves that i"ll live in life I'll be well spent!
