How carefully
by David N. Muxo


How carefully we speak,
trying not to be too serious.
And yet
life is a serious business.
Each second life and death,
a breath away.

How delicate the dance
we call this life.
How light the steps
we learn
at mother nature's knee.
We would be graceful dancers
in Swan Lake, but we
have two left feet.
A breath away eternity
awaits, and smiles.
