Superficial Smile

You take and make life easy

With your superficial smile

Your hands out stretched for grasping

For you won’t be denied

But what about some payback

I really think it’s due

You gave a little thought now

On what you have to do

To try and make amends now

For all that you have been

One of life’s true takers

Your ways has been obscene

For gifts are meant for sharing

With everyone you meet

For when you give with loving

You life becomes a treat.

Thought To Ponder – The way people shallow breath instead of taking proper deep breaths is similar to the way people think by excepting the popular answers to problems rather than first looking and searching for the truth – PTT

Clinging To Life

Between the cracking pavements

They cling and grasp for life

Spreading out their roots

As to this earth they fight

Once they are established

They bring their own rewards

With flowers so resplendent

They dance to natures chords

Their scent it marks the dawning

To welcome in the day

While light reflects their beauty

As in the wind they play

Their stay is all so fleeting

As to these stones they cling

Dispersing all the sunshine

There clinging lives can bring
