11 Poems About Life To Remind You How To Live Fully, Wildly & Gracefully

this life, your life
is a tiny drop in the ocean
of existence, waiting for you to drink
from its vast body of water;
wake up and quench your thirst.

this life, your life
is a speck of dust in the light
that dances, between the rays
of an ever-lasting sun;
wake up and feel the warmth.

this life, your life,
is a grain of dirt, trodden
into the earth, so that you
may be humbled by the walls
of your life crashing down;
wake up and build with grace.

this life, your life
is a millisecond in a kaleidoscope
of moments and memories,
gifted to you to experience
the highs the lows
and everything in between;
wake up and embrace the ride.

this life, your life
is a single breath in a world
of life and death, where fragility
reminds us, life is short;
wake up and breathe.

this life, your life
is as long as you make it
and as love-filled as you allow it to be;
wake up, drink, feel, build, embrace,
love and breathe. this is your life,
so, wake up and live.
