Expanded Possibilities Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

We live.
We learn.
We give to earn,
A right...
To enjoy this experience called life.

We grow to age.
And mature from mistakes made.
With a forgiveness shown towards others...
Hopefully done,
Before it is realized...
How short the time it is,
All of us hold this 'light' within...
To choose to dim or sparkle bright!

Some...
Just do whatever they can,
To stay with their petty ways.
Delaying any involvement,
With expanded possibilities.
