Be Curious
Tales filled with romantic passion
Might even include a sense of fashion,
And an intricate design
Can be as beautiful
As stars that align,
And by knowing how living life
Never goes out of style,
Being alive can reveal
How miracles do happen
Even if they were to take a while,
So there truly is virtue
Within waiting for a long time
So that elegance and refinement
Could still be very sublime
Along with anything incredible
That would stand the test of time
