Life is Short

Live it up

By Colleen WaltersPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

You may think I’m weird.

Want you to know I’m not skeered.

“Normalcy” is feared.

—-

It’s OK to live big,

Singing, sillying, diving

headfirst into life.

—-

My mission in life

is to be so positive,

that people startle.

  • It's fun to be a kid sometimes even at 74. However, the norm is not that.
