If today were to be my last day,


I’d jump into the fall leaves and play,


I’d share everything I have to say,


I’d take some time to pray,


And wish everyone a good day!


 


I’d give a long lasting hug,


I’d snuggle like a bug in a rug.


 


I’d visit the ocean waves,


I’d eat and drink what I crave.


 


I’d share my love without reservation,


I’d dance without hesitation,


And compose a priceless creation.


 


I’d be proud to admit,


That I lived without regret,


For there isn’t a thing on my bucket list,


That hasn't come to exist.


 


If you get my gist, don't make a list. Live it!

Unpardon me but I relent it boldly;
For it is far ahead, if I can be sure of it,
And far it is, that my hallucination be valid,
And hallucination it is, as it should be,
And however, unlike itself, mysterious, unknown, and untested,
So it be foreseen in my tireless search.

I was about to say, “Why don't you just get out and do it…” When I read the last line and you beat me to it!
