I was a little stream yet with a vision to become an ocean. I allow many other bodies to flow into me, one of them is the writer of this poetry...Comrade Austin Lawrence 

Why burden our heart with the weight of stress?

If we fade today, will the stars gleam less?

Or will life stop it's march and cease to flow?

Or rivers stop singing the hymns they know?

Will the sun refuse to rise at dawn?

Because one soul's presence is withdrawn?

What's so dead that worth our fight?

If we die, can time be denied it's endless flight?

Life goes on with or without our songs,

Let's create rooms for new songs,

So, let's have fun and seize the day,

For worries only bring dismay.

Life moves on with or without us,

The trials we face shouldn't tie us down,

From enjoying each moment, for that's our drive,

For we are meant to live, to merry, and to thrive.
