        Have You?

Have you laid on your back
in a field of fragrant grass,
and watched the beauty of clouds
as they go rolling past?

Have you picked wildflowers
or chased a butterfly?
Have you climbed a tree
and reached your arms to the sky?

Have you stood on a beach at night
enjoying the glow of distant moonlight?
Or watched a beautiful seagull
as it soared effortlessly in flight?

Have you walked a country road
and smelled the freshness of the air?
Have you tossed your cares to the wind,
and would you even dare?

Simple pleasures, one and all,
take time to enjoy them while you can.
It's true that life is fleeting,
we may never have the chance again.
