Waking up
Never knowing if today
Might be our last
Be at peace
Be content
Love
And if today would be our last
Allow spirit to always live
Freedom to love
Freedom to live
Freedom to laugh
Freedom to be
Freedom forever
Waking up
Never knowing if today
Might be our last
Be at peace
Be content
Love
And if today would be our last
Allow spirit to always live
Freedom to love
Freedom to live
Freedom to laugh
Freedom to be
Freedom forever
I love this poem and it is so relevant with all the horrible stuff in the world right now. My favorite part is ” Freedom to Love. Freedom to Live. Freedom to laugh, Freedom to be. Freedom forever.” Because that is what we all value most, liberty — the freedom to be us whoever that is. Great work!

Thank you so much, mandibelle, it is so sad thinking that some would deliberately murder innocent people, no words seemed appropriate to pen, this was all I could come up with xx

Refreshing words Vonita, a pleasure to read words that express dreams of Freedom that convey hope and peace. We need more words like yours in the world today.
Kind regards.

Wow! This is beautiful….absolutely liberating! This brings to mind a quote by Cavett Robert which goes thus ‘ If you don’t think everyday’s a good day, just try missing on’! Life’s short and we must seize each day we’re opportuned to be a part of and make the best of it; for we’ll never know, it may as well be our last day! Plus, Vanessa Williams surmises that ‘Everyday will be the sweetest day we’ll ever know’ in one of her tunes, and I couldn’t agree more! Thanks for sharing Vonita! 😇😄
