Will You Use It Wisely, Or Will You Hide

As old age advances through every year you begin to look to all the years’ past Wondering how quickly those years got you here and how many more years ahead you can last. You begin to question if your very soul will be used again, as if to reincarnate or if, as you prayed, to heaven be your goal The answers not known, you will have to wait. The only option is in the here and now In the way you live your life each day to give love and care, and matter somehow With an open hand, to help in some way. In order to show your fellow man, you care meditate each night before you go to sleep Each morning give thanks with a heartfelt prayer and vow that promises you made you can keep. The day lies ahead, it is only for you to live it fully, only you can decide To make it fruitful in what you say and do Will you use it wisely, or will you hide?
