Days well spent

Spoiler! :
Be thankful of your days and live them without regrets. Have fun, do things just to say you did it. have fun. you only live once :)



Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Go out and explore the world
Have the wind blow through your hair.

Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Go learn about something new
and learn what's over there.

Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Go have fun with no doubts
Not a single care.

Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Go find that loved one
Go find out where.

Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Go try something new
So you can have something to share.

Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Take a deep breath and go outside
Get some fresh air.

Hello :) Great poem you got here. I liked the message. I can see why you chose your username!
I thought what you wrote was pretty cool. Although I'm not too sure if such repetition is necessary. It sounded off to me:

Days are meant to be spent with delight,
Not doubt and despair.


But I suppose the message was well received. So good job. :) Another thing,

Go learn about something new
and learn what's over there.


It's merely my own opinion, but I feel like this would sound better if you changed the word "learn" in the second line to "seek". ..seek what's over there. Anyway, nice job dude. Liked your poem a lot. ;) Keep up the writing.

Hey there,
Wow this poem is so simple yet so gripping. that's beautiful. I really like it, i like how you kept to the pattern, how its such a happy poem that is trying to teach people how to live right. Amazing. I really think it is well-written so I applaud you, I have no bad comments only praise so smile.:). Only one tiny little thing I noticed though, 'ment' is incorrect, it is spelled 'meant'.
My favorite lines were the last stanza:
"Days are ment to be spent with delight
Not doubt and despair,
Take a deep breath and go outside
Get some fresh air."
Bravo!
