Poetry – Nothing Wasted

Nothing Wasted

Nothing wasted,

                No experience,

                                No loss,

                                                                No gain;

Everything counts.

We have life

                Under the sun,

                                In the rain,

                                                Breathing;

Taking in wonder.

Even in sadness,

                Grieving,

                                Crying,

                                                Lamenting;

We are still alive.

It seems to me that something is better than nothing. But I suspect there are times when that is not true.

But most of the time we do not appreciate the wonder of life. We open our eyes on a universe.

One day, forever, we will not.

Do we appreciate it enough? Or do we waste our precious time?
