Live It Now Poem by Carolyn Brunelle

I need some new paint
on these old walls
before one more day
fades into just another Fall.
Now is the time,
no better place to start
if a new day's coming
I have to do my part
fill in the holes, mend the cracks,
create a new look and never look back.
Add splashes of color,
a bit here, a bit there,
and spice up the place,
give it some flair.
Then light my best candles
and make some calls
haul out that party dress
from its place in moth balls;
and get to livin' this life
a bit brighter each day
take more joy in my moments
before they all go away.
