Life Can Be Grand Poem by BRUCE MARTONE

LIFE CAN BE GRAND A WISE MAN SAID
WITH A LONG WHITE BEARD
IF YOU KNOW HOW TO LIVE IT
LEAVING THE SMALL STUFF ALONE
AND KNOWING WHEN TO WALK AWAY
FROM A FIGHT AND GO HOME
LEAVING IT FOR ANOTHER DAY
LIFE CAN BE GRAND
WHEN FILL WITH FRESH ROSES
AND RAIN BOWS
IF YOU TAKE THE TIME TO SEE
WITH OUT ALWAYS BEING ON THE GO
LIFE CAN BE GRAND
WITH NOTHING BUT SWEET SONG
AND DANCE
IF YOU CAN FIND THE TIME
TO TAKE A CHANCE
AND SING ALONG
OH LIFE CAN BE GRAND
