Life Is Like

Life is like a coin.

You can spend it any way you wish,

But you can only spend it once.

That looked like a fine purchase,

But how long would it be cherished?

It looked great,

Before your change was gone,

Leaving you in bitterness.

Your pockets empty,

Your coin lost.

My pockets may be empty,

But my money was well spent.

This is, sweet.

Like a sliver of chocolate, fine chocolate, expensive chocolate, chocolate that you can keep and savor for more than half a second.

Thank you.
