Be Curious
Being alive really is a miracle,
So it is especially important
To do anything essential,
And focus on the fundamental
While going beyond survival,
So hope that all would thrive
Since being human is natural,
And do anything it takes
To learn from
onset mistakes
Because it is never too late
To start over again,
So let the heart spread love
While remaining as hopeful as a peaceful dove
By letting go of shameful hate,
And by trying to appreciate
