I feel like dancing

Why, you ask?

Well, why not?


I like you.

So I will tell you that I like you.

Why, you ask?

Why not?


I want to go to the park and have fun like a little kid.

So I will.

Why, you so implore?

Why not?


You have this life.
Do what you want in it,
It is a blank canvas....
No... An empty vase.

It is an empty vase
In which you fill with water.

Fill it with water sweet,
Water saturated with love and peace
Love and romance
Love and happiness

Fill it with water nutritious
With solved mysteries
And questions and answers
And knowledge

Or even fill it with crazy marbles
Of orange and blue and red and purple!
Do what you want,
Make funny stories to tell the younger generations

Fill it with beautiful flowers!
Achieve goals, do things
Get an education, live your dream job
Do great things, make the flowers BLOOM!

Don't hold back.

Don't ask why.

Ask why not.

Make your vase the best it can be.

What does your bouquet look like?
