Cynthia Jones Poet Rhyme

Cherish Each Moment

Cherish each moment
as if it were your last,
give your loved ones a hug
don't let the time pass.

Let your children know you love them
with every beat of your heart,
spend lots of time together
don't spend it being apart.

Never leave words unsaid
today can be gone,
live in that very moment
because tomorrow might never come.

I don't have any idea as to how I got the inspiration for this one. All I know is, I had the first couple of lines in my head and this is what I had come up with.
