What a lovely and insightful poem, Olivier! I really enjoyed it. Maybe I'll come back later and add a verse.

... and you may contribute a verse! What will your verse be?

Thirty years have passed since my first memories
I had already already had a wonderful life and have still have more to come
I recall the past, when all the moments that was were awesome
When I were was a kid, full of innocence, joy and cherries

Since then, time have has flown and I lost a lot of persons beloved people I loved
And I learnt learned to enjoy each instant moment- to not stick to the past
And to cherish my beloved that still remain: time flies fast
But I have memories, gloom will remain on you sticked stuck on you

I still have to bear it, but I'm no more not alone: I found love
And so unpredictable, I did wait it waited for more than twenty years
With my love aside beside me, I'm more confident, no more fears!
And my heart is full of joy, and will be always in a glove

Life is not a poem, it's light and dark, with hard, sweet moments
There are is sadness and joy coated on it, Yang and Yin
But I will live and enjoy it, intensely, my heart is shinin'
What will my verse be? Carpe Diem, taste each instant seize the moment!

What will my verse be?
It'll be for my love, Nathalie

And I recall those words, from dead poets society:
"That you are here - That life exists...
That the powerful play goes on
And you may contribute a verse
What will your verse be?"
