So Precious
By: Rosemary Shoong
life so precious
and all the moments we live
pass
and quickly change.
It is so easy to complain
“life is mundane”
and take everything for granted.
and before you know it
it’s over
and you look back
and it’s over
and those precious moments
were wasted….thinking
small thoughts
life is so precious
it only takes
special moments
and being awake
to make a life full.
a life so precious
