Bucket List

It never even crossed
my mind
that growing old 
might be
quite so unkind
as it is now turning out  ..
Today tho’ I realise
that back in the day ..
When that
first flush of youth
passed me by
I had then failed and so
miserably,
to consider, take into
account, or even
acknowledge so many
universal truths ..
Therefore, my latest,
updated bucket list
consists of all those
things
I have not yet done ..
So just in case,
I come too soon or
maybe, stay too late ..
I want you to know
my love
I decided long ago ..
To henceforth,
approach life full on
and not to stall,
or pause, or for one
single moment
hesitate, but rather
always, do what
feels good at the time ..

Being Me

I haven't got a bucket list. Sometimes I think perhaps I should. But I cannot think what I would put on it! Do I want to see the wonders of the world? No, I'm good. Jump out of a plane? No. Swim with dolphins? Maybe, but I'd rather just see them free in the sea ... and I've done that. Maybe I'm just boring, lol x

I think you should devise one, but if you do, think carefully about what you would really and truly and dearly, love to do ..
I have seen most of the seven existing wonders, I have jumped out of a plane three times and swam with dolphins, but like you, would rather see them swimming wild and free ..
I think you should give it some thought .. and no, I doubt that you are boring at all Tina :) x
