I wrote this poem because of a recent scare with
my dad's health. It brought home the fact that "you never know"
when something may happen that could change everything in
your world.
You Never Know
See every moment as a gift
Savor each one as you go
Tuck them away in your heart
Because you never know
When life is running on cruise
And all of the signs say go
Don’t take it all for granted
Because you never know
Follow all of your dreams
Don’t be afraid to grow
Learn all there is to learn
Because you never know
Give hugs and kisses freely
Let the love you feel show
Don’t wait until tomorrow
Because you never know
