My Poetry

Make the Moments Matter






We're only here for a moment,



like a wave crashing down on the shore.



So make the most of those moments.



Make friends when you're 3 and keep them.



Just sit back and enjoy the view.



Wiggle your toes in the sand,



and don't worry about the woes on your to-do.



Chat with a girlfriend about nothing,



and laugh until your belly aches.



Remember the compliments you get,



and the times you were truly happy.

But forget the rest,



because the rest doesn't count.



It's the good moments that matter.
