Days of Our Lives

Mem’ries of the past
events in current times,
ways to recall and compare;
messages of our lives.

A wee bit of time
a great deal of courage
it’s what life is -
across human struggles.

Moments to live by,
in diverse episodes;
both action and reaction
that life brings to fore.

It’s encouraging though
to see people of cultures;
working up to the hilt,
to build a future for all.

As an immigrant here
attempts to be fruitful.
In any endeavor to make
time is gold and meaningful.

It’s a journey so to speak
all aspects of relationship
like a pilgrim on the road
he needs time and effort.

Before the sun sets today
must have accomplished
something that’s due 
to be shared and done.

Behold! Life goes on
amid the travails,
we dare keep going,
we keep in the game.
