Always There Is More To Life

life is not
a box of chocolates,
it's a bouquet of
flowers
colors of delight
scents of desire
so light
to the heart

it is what i hold
for you
in my hands
life so full of
flowers

but always there
is more to life
we feel it
when the bouquet is
finally thrown to the
air
and another one
expectant holds
it dear

someday
life will be different
a tree full of fruits
at night
fireflies in
freedom to shine
their own
lights
