I looked for love
I looked to fill
My thirsty soul
All others failed
They loved elsewhere
I was stranded
Without air
I stopped awhile
I saw the world
Flowers and blossoms
And did all I could
To cherish life
To be aware
Of moments passing –
Windswept hair
Here today
Gone tomorrow
The cycles continue
Joy and sorrow
Spring and then fall
Night and day
Live every moment
Feel the sun’s rays!
wonder and inspiring…

I am so sorry; as a writer, you would think I could spell correctly? That should have been, “needed.”
My apologies…
