Shelly – I love this poem! So powerful and gets me thinking about my own life and the lives of friends and family. I like the bookends and word choice – embrace, precious, unexpected. So much to think about here. Thank you!

Shelly, your poem simply expresses a view that embraces life. Your word choice reveals that life has zest and life has troubles, but you end on a high note–laugh often; live to the fullest. Reminds me to be that person who “always looks on the bright side” of my life! Have a happy Tuesday.
