Life-By Calvin

Life is full and oh, so sweet

For those who love it, it is complete.

If yours is shallow, no one to hold,

You’re much too meek — you must be bold!

The meek and timid heart grows colder;

The wise heart knows you must be bolder.

For life is not a dress rehearsal —

A day that has passed, There’s no reversal.

An empty day that passes by

Will not be filled before we die.

And as empty days, they pass on by, An empty heart will sit and cry.

How sad it is to miss a chance

To fill your day with sweet romance!

To live alone —It must be wrong.

The hours drag by, the day is so long,

But happy days, they fly so fast,

Like birds in flight,So soon they’re past.

So let’s help fulfill each other’s day

With loving deeds and things we say.

If there is a void we can fulfill

Within each other — oh, what a thrill!

And if some moments we can share,

A warm embrace, soft words of care,

Memories of a love affair

Are a lasting gift beyond compare.

A casual word, a fleeting glance,

Are building blocks for a new romance.

If we bring joy to each other’s day

And harm no one along the way,

Then our reward will surely be,

A fuller life for you and me!

The smallest match will build a fire;

A hug and kiss will bring desire.

Those who refuse to bare their soul

Are concealing a story that goes untold.

Tender moments lovers share,

Precious time beyond compare.

With someone dear, you share a dream

Beneath a tree, beside a stream.

You carve your initials on the tree

And pledge to love eternally.

Some love affairs are well-directed,

While others seem so disconnected.
