Theres more to life


By: David Avery

The universe is full of magnificent things

And there is no way but journeying through the

World, and opening your mind, to see it.

Awe-some things like the sunset at night,

Or how morning glory’s look when exposed to light

Or literally the mountains you see driving

Carelessly to and from school. For these

And the like reasons, you have to discover.

And look around, and open your mind to these things

And sometimes try to capture it all. And, I know

What you will do with the experience you get

while taking fun road-trips, or going on mountain hikes

with your closest friends, and I know these things can be

good for you. And you will have to do them

in order to feel the passion that I do

if you want to. And if you do not, then find your passion,

at least, amidst the grand confusion of the world

in your language, the way it’s meant to be

And then use your passion to fuel other people
