Life Expects Poem by Bob Blackwell

Life Expects

Rating: 5.0


A wholehearted
enthusiasm and
and passion,
without which we will
be condemned to
a shallow life,
of monotonous zero,
amongst those classed as
living, but already dead.

You may be suprised to know that a few months ago, someone asked me on PH, as to how even at my advanced age, I have so much zest for life! ! ! Now I sincerely wish, that he reads this glorious piece, coming from someone, who is much senior to me! THANKS FOR SHARING! 10+ -Raj

A wholehearted enthusiasm and and passion, within the the ambit of the assigned role not beyond, lest the master should strike us off the scroll. Let us play the role assigned as the scriptwriter designed, viewing the whole plot and its ambiance, a partial transience CP

I can say it, but I know I am not a good example of it. We should strive constantly to live a fully human life and be fully human in every way that time and circumstances make possible for us.

From the day of birth there is a ticking clock counting down the time we spend on Earth. From the time we can make our own decisions, we owe it to ourselves to live life to the full. Good write Bob.

... which is why we owe it to our children and grandchildren to give them all the unconditional love and secure limits that ensure they gain self-esteem. Without that, life will always be half-empty. Great poem. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
