Life Is An Adventure Poem by Jim Yerman

It's been said life is an adventure…but I believe it's more complex
Life is not just one adventure…it's one adventure…then the next.…

Then the next one, then the next one, then the next one…then the next…
Life is a series of adventures…as I say…a bit complex.

It's true, when you stop to think about it…when one adventure is abating
up ahead, just around the corner…another adventure is awaiting.

Any adventure hinges on you…as to how it is defined
It depends on how you experience it…how you see it in your mind.

The Grand Canyon is magnificent…as you look out over the vastness of the land
but have you ever watched a ladybug…as it walks upon your hand.

An adventure can be simple…doesn't have to bring acclaim.
Have you ever watched your granddaughter at a child's softball game?

Reading a book can be an adventure…no matter what its shape or size
Even reading this poem can be an adventure…(for that I apologize!)

Yes, every moment can be an adventure…every move you make
every time you step outside…every breath you take.

If you look at life with adventure in your eyes…
think of all the things you'll learn…
think of all the wonders you'll experience…
when you see adventures at every turn.
