The Art of Living

The Art of Living

Where did you come from,
And where will you go?
With so many questions,
How can you know?

We trudge and we travel.
Onward, we fly!
There’s no turning back, now.
Don’t even try.

We live and we learn.
We’ll feel sadness and joy.
Following your heart
Is a major ploy.

What makes you tick?
Who will you inspire?
Who in this world
Will set your passions on fire?

We don’t know why.
We don’t know when.
We don’t have the answers
As imperfect men.

One day we’ll get there
And when we arrive,
We’ll yell and be thankful
To just be alive!
