Live Every Moment

By Karen Aguiar

Be like a pearl in the mire,

And steal the thunder,

Or be a spark in fire,

Like the glory of nature.

Be the lawn that grows ,

And leaves that swing,

Like white water that flows,

And angles who sing.

Be like a silver treasure,

Or grapes turning into wine,

Bright sky without measure,

With stars of mighty shine.

Fresh as the soil from earth,

Firm as a weapon so sharp,

Like every dew drop birth,

Or a pillar with no warp.

Irresistible as the sun,

A drop in the rain shower,

Like the endless run,

Or a blooming flower.
