Waste Not

"Every man dies. Not every man lives." William Wallace

WASTE NOT

All the splendid colors I've seen

All the warm fresh air I breathed

All the vigorous chill I felt

Waiting for the snow to melt

All the spring flowers I have viewed

Things I could, not just what I should

All the summer's vacation spots

What I did, and not did not

I've thought of death from time to time

But mostly it was quite sublime

I have a plateful of life to taste

A not a precious moment to waste
