Life's Choices Poem by Paul Sebastian

Choose the gift of happiness
Instead of rocking in sadness
Choose the gift of health
Instead of amassing mere wealth
Choose the gift of life, together
Instead of living a life, asunder
Choose advice of the elders and wise
Instead of living in a fool’s paradise
Choose to avoid life’s mistakes
Instead of living a life of regrets

You can’t dwell in the futile past
What has happened, never can adjust
It is foolish to live in dead-yesterdays
Whilst today is here for loving embrace
Choose tomorrow to put wrongs, right
Your life-script, you can choose to rewrite
Life is too short to be little
Life is a waste if it’s not subtle
Life is what you make of it
Life offers no chance for repeat
Indeed, your life is in your hands
Mark it, for what you stand.
