Unwritten is my life before me
As it has been all my past
Each day I've borne from unknown
And will do so until my last
I beckon each day with open arms
Not knowing for what's in store
Climbing mountains, swimming seas
Losing inhibitions, wanting more
Loving life to it's fullest
My words are mine and mine to use
Not regretting any moment
Heeding life's so subtle clues
Looking forward to the future
Anticipation of highs and lows
Times of happiness and low days
Will it be tomorrow no one knows
Not knowing where my life may be going
It is the chance I will take
Wanting to live life to it's fulllest
My gifts are mine alone to make

Very deep , very good congratulations on the gold you earned it and deserved it. Climbing mountains swimming seas. Lost inhibitants wanting more. Loving life to its fullest. I can identify with that I love life today and enjoy it to the fullest. Sometimes a second at a time or minute by minute. Thank you for such a positive,
I needed that. Thank you.

Great words inspired by a beautiful song, sometimes we need to just stop going through the motions and take a chance. one minor spelling error "loosing" needs to have an "o" omitted to become "losing".

A beautiful piece of uplifting work, oozing with inspiration and love for life. It's really refreshing to read poetry of this kind and gives the reader a reason to ponder over each stanza. Well done and good luck. Lovely reading

True
There's only one today and one moment in a succession of moments and days. What to do NOW before it is tomorrow and today is yesterday. Good points!

Interesting. Good look into the thoughts of the "everyman.everywoman".
Just a pet peeve of mine... the use of an ampersand instead of the word "and"... doesn't save any syllables, and just distracts the eye. [in my opinion]
Write On!
