Authors Note: I wrote this poem about the quote about a lecture Mr. Johnson gave us about living in the moment. The quote I used as inspiration for this piece was Today is life - the only life you are sure of". ~Dale Carnegie
Silent wind catches rustling sounds,
Cinnamon scents of autumn around.
Bitters air whipping, tornadoes tangling auburn strands
Slowly down rigid steep hills, steady steps expand.
Harmoniously combining with my thoughts sturdily
skidding to a stop, balancing my feet firmly.
Listen-
Live--
Making the best of the moments of today.
Is there a tomorrow? --
Will winter come?
