When Time Is All We Have
Enjoy Now
The truth of the fact is all we have is today
Tomorrow is just a wish away
We often make plans and later carry them out
We make appointments and things to do lists
It is business as usual
One day leads to the next
They all blend together like moms meatloaf
Making one heck of one at that
Never exactly the same
But each bite is full of some new surprise
More often than not never duplicated
No matter how hard we try
But we try and try again
To make it just the way it was
Enjoying each day as if this was the only one
Until the next one replaces the old
The old day is soon forgotten
It goes into our memory and becomes like dust on the dresser
We only see it if we look close
Many times we never give it any thought
Then once in a blue moon it is time to clean
The new dust replaces the old
The old becomes just a distant memory
So if today is all we have
Why don't we love more ?
Why don't we care more ?
Why don't we help more ?
Do we think we are going to live forever and a day
That is all I have to say
