Thread: never know one day..

the world keeps turning
like a fan keeps spinnin
look at what you have
and what you have given
cherish your coffee
your dreams, your laughter
never know one day
might become a disaster
no matter how smart
or safe that you are
even if you are parked
you can die in a car
take every breath
smile when you do
you really dont know
what could happen to you
but whatever it is
that second that day
when all of your breaths
seem to go away
i hope that right then
when you leave this place
you have that big smile
right there on your face

Marinelly, what a refreshing optomistic poem yet urging us strongly to appreciate each day for there may not be another. So, true!

I liked your opening lines very much. Good rhyme and a fantastic similie!

cherish your coffee
your dreams, your laughter

This made me smile and feel very cozy! I imagine sitting with a friend in my kitchen (my favorite place in the house) just talking about our dreams and laughing.

Welcome, Martnelly, love the sentiment behind this. Normally I would say, stanzas, punctuation and caps, but for whatever reason, this pieces works structurally as is, at least for me. The rhymes are a bit simplistic and one or two are a tad forced, but that is certainly not a deal breaker. I enjoyed this very much, it brightened a dreary day.

Best,
Lisa
