Life Art

Rickety rack and all that smack.
Running a race with time,
always feeling the slack.
Time to claim your life back.

Lingering, meandering,
distractions, and mind in fractions.
Mind so full of wondering,
always delaying the appropriate actions.

It's yours to choose,
 yours to control.
What do you have to lose?
Get on a roll.

Go ahead and start.
Each day is a new beginning.
Approach your life like art.
Fresh canvas, now start painting.

Stop the mocking and all the self-doubt.
Raise your head up, open your heart.
Love the one in the mirror, with a great big shout.
"I love you! You beautiful piece of art."
