Life

A Poem by Jennifer P

Life is full of pain and heartache
And we could let it be
To stand aside and watch ourselves 
Be carried out to sea

But Life is full of joy as well
Peace and Beauty and love
We must learn to accept it all
To reach for the undreamed of

Maybe I can't change the past
And the future I can't see
But I have today and here and now
And that's enough for me

So pack up the past and it's pain
Treasure the joy and allure
Celebrate this day of life
That's new and clean and pure
