Acum ceva vreme, am gasit o poezie anonima, din genul ‘inspirational’ ar zice unii, poezie care spune multe despre felul in care ar fi bine sa vedem viata.  V-o ofer, intr-o zi de miercuri cu hachite si intrebari.

P.S. Intre timp, am aflat si cine a scris-o:

A poem written by Rose Milligan of Lancaster, Lancashire, England. The poem was first published in the September 15th – 21st edition of The Lady (magazine)in 1998.

The poem is quoted on many web sites, as either an inspirational poem, or in order to reflect the ethos of that site. It is usually attributed to either „Unknown” or „Anon”.

Dust if you must

Dust if you must, but wouldn’t be better
to paint a picture, or write a letter,
bake a cake, or plant a seed.
Ponder the difference between want and need.

Dust if you must, but there is not much time,
with rivers to swim and mountains to climb!
Music to hear, and books to read,
friends to cherish and life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world’s out there
with the sun in your eyes, the wind in your hair,
a flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
this day will not come round again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
old age will come and it’s not kind.
And when you go, and go you must,
you, yourself, will make more dust!
