life is too short for leaving
life is too short to stay
even inside the grieving
love is the life of day
no matter life's achieving
no matter work or play
without love's believing
life's love too turns to clay
Author notes
For those who leave, for those who stay ... I love you all.

Short and sweet and very touching. A delight to read. -
This was very nice, and appreciated. The sentiment is obvious and honest. Thanks for droppin' by.

Love this little poem that says so much of what I believe to be such truth, how life is to be that of love, so we are so much more than just the mold we are mended together with by bone. I love this write, and what a great way to start out my day!
Much love, Timothy

This is adorable and a true pleasure to recite aloud. I needed this poem right now because I just found out that our own AP poet Melodies is leaving.
