Cherish

The wine poured o' rubied lips,
sweet serenity discovered.
Drink to remembrance,
Intoxication unrecovered.

Shut the door and close your eyes,
feel warmth of light's grace.
Be sure to recognize,
life is what you make.

Let the memories flow through you,
and be one with your past.
Take the time to find yourself,
cherish while it lasts.

It's not enough to simply be,
to float through this great gift.
Enjoy every moment,
to provide your spirit lift.

Words intend to tantilize,
a mind meant to be teased.
Struggling each day,
making sure you end up pleased.

Experience everything you can,
forget your sadness, put down guilt.
Make each day worth living for,
that's how we were built.
