Life As You See It

All people are born into a bright light

Many pass into that light later in life

But each day as we grow, our world changes colors

A white canvas stands before you

Waiting to hold your dearest moments

Will they be of life, love, or laughter?

What will it contain?

We all are different in a great number of ways

Throw on colors of all shades, hues, and mixtures

But never start over or you will have erased your life

Everyone has a bad day and we all have bumps in our roads

But we also have bright days full of sun and smooth waters to sail on

Wheat fields that sway in the wind as the sun pounds down on you

 Ocean shores washing up lost treasures from the depths

Not everyone will end with a masterpiece

Not everyone is great at painting or drawing

But we all will treasure our life

We all have a picture of what we would like our canvas to look like

No one's will look the same because we are all different people

We all have our own way of expression

And we all have different dreams
