There are so many things in life that I take for granted and don't realize it. As bad as it sounds I guess a lot of times it is people. I don't realize how much I love certain people until they're gone. Especially friends, so many friends of mine have come and gone and I wish I cherished our time together more than I did.
At the same time I am grateful for all those who are or have been in my life, whether it be friends, a girlfriend, or family. Even though I can take them for granted I have learned to be grateful for those who care about me and I care for. I am grateful for all the experiences I've had, especially in my musical journey. I feel very lucky every day.
One thing I love to take in and absorb are places. Whenever I go to a new and unfamiliar place I love just taking my time there and exploring. I even like doing that with old places in hopes of finding something new or refinding what made the place special in the first places.
Always cherish friends
They keep things bright when it's dim
Learn to enjoy them
The sun keeps life warm
Keeps all the creatures happy
Bring life to the dark
Music speaks to us
Even sometimes without words
It uplifts our paths
Food may seem plentiful
You must always cherish it
For it could vanish
Health is what you are
Sickness could always take over
Always watch yourself
Drew,
ReplyDeleteGreat haikus. I like how you chose topics for each one... such as health, food... the simple things that are always taken for granted.
But where are you pictures? Try to include at least three in you post. Copy and paste from Google. Find cool images or photos that match your theme and topic. Grab the reader. Add 3000 words with a few clicks.
Then, double your paragraphs so that you have some meat in them. These paragraphs are all skin and bone. Try to give yourself more time... it feels like you're throwing it out there again, like an after thought.
Needs more meat.
