Withering grass of this season
with your abundance of green,
take advantage of Today -
Contribute to this Earthly scene.
Enjoy your present strength;
ignore worries of the past.
Let the distant failures fade
and let sweeter memories last.
Be true to yourself always,
standing tall and strong.
Focus on your own meadows and…
Learn to hum to Life’s song.

I like it, a very good way to show hope in our life by using grass as a metephor.I love the last two lines they just finish it off so perfectly. Makes you want to hum a tune.
