Every Day is a Gift

Tara Darity
It's all about the journey
Not the destination
Live life to the fullest
No matter your location

We should all feel lucky
Every day is a gift
Sometimes we forget
And just need a lift

Times will get tough
That we can all agree
Always try your hardest
Be the best you can be

Things happen for a reason
You might not see now
One day it will make sense
And you will say wow

    Your line, its not about the destination, its all about the journey, just hit me so profoundly. I am so impressed with your giftedness in writing poetry. This is truly a sterling fine piece of art. Well done.
