Life All In

Life All In

If I closed my eyes, then opened them and life had passed by
I hope my joys exceeded the sorrows
My laughs superseded the tears
My successes outshined the failures
I hope I’d lived a life so full, there’d be no cause for regrets

I loved God with all my heart
Followed in His prescribed path
I pursued my dreams
Got up when I fell
And tried and tried again

I won some and I lost some
Settled for nothing but the best
I was good to my fellowmen
I gave fully of myself
I was loved and I loved

If I closed my eyes, then opened them and life had passed by
I hope I’d lived a life so full, there’d be no cause for regrets

Creative soul. Artsy to the core. Poet, Speaker, Author. An unapologetic lover of God, of love and of all things nature. Hardcore logophile with an epigrammatic style. I am motivated to write from observing what I believe God created-by-design like nature, family, love, and relationship. My work has been published in anthologies, magazines and newspapers then I later wrote and published my first book: “Moments: A Poetic Heart Journey”. And I continue to write. When I’m not writing creatively, I work for an international organization to promote social progress, better living standards and human rights.
