Enjoy the Universe

I'm thinking I really enjoy sharing poetry. If you're reading these I cannot thank you enough!

Enjoy the Universe
The Sparrow sings in the morning,
And though he weaves through the trees
His song is not forgotten
But it slips,
into the falling petals of the dogwood trees.
Enjoy the Universe,
Enjoy each passing moment that flits by like a
wounded butterfly,
Don’t reach out,
Don’t touch it..just let it slip away
To watch it die is the only way to assure its life
It’s wings are too fragile and they beat so fast
But it doesn't last
This place it doesn't last.
Enjoy the Universe
Enjoy every little thing you have because it will be gone.
Faster than you can recognize its value,
Enjoy the Universe
Every little bit that you see,
Because you will never see it all
and take your boat,
with a splintered mast and tattered sails and push
it out to sea…
And rejoice
Even if it should break rejoice
Because you
You know how to swim..
Enjoy the Universe and do nothing else..
The Sparrow sings in the morning
And though he weaves through the trees
His song is not forgotten
