Day By Day

Life is not an easy task
To live it day by day
For every step that we take
We must think along the way.

There may be some different paths
That we must over come
For once we have conquered them
We are proud of what we’ve done.

We set goals we try to reach
Taking that extra stride
Wanting so much to succeed
When we do we fill with pride.

So much we want to complete
Struggles may come our way
One must always give their all
Living their life day by day.

Kelly, every life has forks in the road, some we take willingly, and some that are forced upon us. It's how we deal with them. Another totally enjoyable piece >> James
