    Non-rhyming poetry. Forgot what it's called. But here you go. (This is my original work by the way.)




    Living on Earth is expensive,
    but it does include a free trip
    around the sun every year.



    How long a minute is
    depends on what side of the
    bathroom door you're on.





    Birthdays are good for you;
    the more you have,
    the longer you live.






    Happiness comes through doors you
    didn't even know you left open.







    Ever notice that the people who are late
    are often much jollier
    than the people who have to wait for them?





    Most of us go to our grave
    with our music still inside of us.






    If Wal-Mart is lowering prices every day,
    how come nothing is free yet?






    You may be only one person in the world,
    but you may also be the world to one person.






    Some mistakes are too much fun
    to only make once.







    Don't cry because it's over;
    smile because it happened.





    We could learn a lot from crayons:
    some are sharp, some are pretty,
    some are dull, some have weird names,
    and all are different colors....but
    they all exist very nicely in the same box.






    A truly happy person is one who
    can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

    Incoherent though it may be, this collection of one-liners did put a smile on my face. Am I missing something though? You said that this is your original work but I spotted some lines that I've heard before:
    I'm certain Gabriel Garcia Marquez said this, albeit in Spanish.
