Its April of 2017 and Day 09 of A to Z Challenge. I am doing Idiom a day and 8 line poem for the idiom.
Idiom: ichi-go ichi-e
Meaning: This comes from Japan. One time, one meeting – Once chance in lifetime. An encounter that only happens once in a lifetime, reminding to treasure every moment, for it will never recur
Poem:
Dance for the beats of time,
Love for the care and shine,
Keep the protocols just fine.
Happiness lies in a dime,
Worry less for what is crime,
We all will have a bed time,
Raise glass with red wine,
Life, ichi-go ichi-e.
Note: All the challenge prompts can be found HERE.
Love this! Carpe Diem! 😊
